A method for automatically boxing ice cream type products allows, via an apparatus with simple mechanical configuration, a sequence of boxing steps to be performed, keeping constant the number of products boxed from one boxing sequence to another, in consideration of possible variations, from one boxing sequence to another, in the spatial distribution of absences of product on the transport system, operating between the apparatus for production of the products and the boxing unit, with the boxing unit being configured, for each boxing sequence, for picking up the products and transferring them into at least one box. The apparatus is configured to automatically perform the method.

Method and apparatus for boxing ice cream type products

A system for transferring articles, includes a plurality of gripping devices, configured to grip respective articles which pass along a first conveyor, wherein each gripping device is movable independently from the remaining gripping devices. A control unit is configured for controlling the gripping devices. A first detection sensor is configured to detect a first value indicating a position of an article on the first conveyor. The control unit is configured for receiving the first value; positioning a gripping device at the article, as a function of the first value; gripping the article with the gripping device; adjusting, as a function of the first value, a speed of the gripping device which grips the article, and releasing the article from the gripping device when the article reaches a release position.

System for transferring articles for packaging machine, packaging machine, corresponding method and computer program product

A method for transferring articles comprises the steps of: preparing a plurality of articles to be transferred along a first conveyor belt movable along a feed direction, picking up the articles with a plurality of gripper heads movable along respective pickup axes, and releasing the articles into a releasing station. The step of picking up the articles comprises the sub-steps of: detecting given parameters of each of the articles by at least one detection and management unit positioned upstream of the plurality of gripper heads, identifying, for each of the rows, at least one homogeneous sub-group of articles based on the given parameters detected, and for each homogeneous sub-group, simultaneously picking up all the articles of the first homogeneous sub-group with a respective group of gripper heads.

Method for transferring articles

A transfer system for food products (P) having a product conveyor (); a first support conveyor () suitable for moving supports () in equicurrent with the food products (P); a plurality of pickers (R, R, R) situated in series along the run of the products (P) and supports () for individually collecting the products (P) from the product conveyor () to arrange them on the supports () translated from the first support conveyor (); presence and position surveying devices (C, C) of which at least one is situated upstream with respect to the food products (P), of a first picker (R) of the plurality of pickers (R, R, R) suitable for detecting the presence, number, position and orientation of each product (P); an electronic image with a presence and position surveying device (C), also connected to an electronic image identification and data processing system (), wherein the pickers (R&#x2013;R) are equipped with handlers () with an individual grip of the sucker type, with an anti-crash system and a suction circuit.
