A method and machine for packing a group of products, whereby the group of products is fed along a first packing path and eased onto a central portion of a blank fed underneath the group, and in the time with the group, along a second path meeting up with the first path; the blank is drawn along said supply path; and at least one further portion of the blank is subsequently folded along a peripheral bend line of the central portion as the group is pressed with a given pressure against the central portion of the blank.

Method and machine for packing a group of products

A method and unit for forming, on a cartoning machine, a group having at least one row defined by a given number of products, whereby an orderly succession of products, traveling at a substantially constant first speed, is fed to conveyor traveling at a substantially constant second speed greater than the first speed; a leading product in the succession is braked on the conveyor until a portion of the succession corresponding to the row being formed moves onto the conveyor; and the leading product in the row is then released gradually to accelerate the row up to the second speed and detach the row from the rest of the succession.

A unit for feeding flat diecut blanks of wrapping material to a user machine is equipped with a conveyor by which blanks disposed on edge transversely to a given feed direction and ordered in a substantially continuous column are caused to advance along a conveying path extending toward a transfer station where each blank in turn is picked up from the column; the conveyor comprises two sections aligned along the path: the one, an intermittently driven first belt by which the column is advanced toward the transfer station through a step of predetermined length, at a predetermined frequency timed with the operation of a pickup mechanism positioned at the transfer station, the other a continuously driven second belt designed to advance the column toward the first belt at a predetermined velocity.

A method and machine for packing a product by means of a flat blank having a central portion supporting the product and in turn having first lateral wings, and two opposite lateral portions, each having second lateral wings; the method and machine provide for folding the first lateral wings using at least one folding body, which has a first and a second folding edge differently inclined with respect to each other, and is rotated about an axis of rotation so that the first folding edge folds a respective first lateral wing to a given angle of less than 90&deg;, and the second folding edge folds corresponding second lateral wings to an angle of 90&deg;; the folding body is then rotated further about the axis of rotation so that the first folding edge completes the folding of the first lateral wing to 90&deg;.
