The invention relates to an apparatus for producing packages containing sliced food products, in which the slices are rolled up into individual rolls by a rolling facility and deposited in a package.

Apparatus for the production of packages

In a machine (1) for the treatment or processing of foodstuffs, e.g. the slicing of sausage, the incidence of contamination by germs in the casing (3) of the machine (1) is reduced by the provision of a heater arranged to heat the casing (3) and/or air contained within it to an elevated temperature. Most preferably, the heater comprises means (32,14) for heating and circulating air in the casing (3) and means (9) for directly heating the casing (3) itself.

Machine for the treatment and processing of foods

An apparatus for inserting stacks of goods (1), for example sausage slices, into hollow containers (4) for packaging, the interior size of the hollow containers (4) corresponding substantially to the dimensions of the goods, includes grippers (2, 7) some of which (7) remain substantially above the edge of the opening of the hollow containers during the insertion procedure and some of which (2) are insertable slightly in the opening to facilitate depositing the goods in the desired position for packaging. Extension members (5) which grip below the goods for packaging can also be provided.
