A packaging unit for producing sealed packages from a tube of packaging material advanced along a first axis includes: at least two jaws arranged on opposite sides of the first axis and movable between a closed position, in which they grip and seal the tube and an open position, in which they are detached from the tube; at least two forming members supported by the respective jaws in a movable manner between a first operating position, in which, in relation to the position of the jaws, they have the maximum distance from one another, and a second operating position, in which they mate with one another and an actuator to produce movement of the forming members; the actuator includes at least one mover connected to both forming members and selectively activated to perform opposite strokes, along which the mover itself produces the movement of each forming members.

Packaging unit for producing sealed packages containing a pourable food product from a tube of packaging material

There is described a folding unit for forming sealed packages of pourable food products, comprising: at least one conveying device for feeding along a forming path a relative pack which have at least one portion to be folded to form a finished package; at least one folding device interacting, in use, with pack along said forming path and adapted to fold said at least one portion; conveying device comprises a first and a second surface opposite to another and adapted, in use, to cooperate respectively with a front and a rear wall opposite to each other of relative pack to be folded; first surface is at least partially concave.

Folding unit for forming sealed packages of pourable food products

There is described a forming member for controlling the volume of packs of pourable food products formed from a tube of packaging material and sealed at a number of sections of tube crosswise to an axis of tube, comprising: a wall comprising, in turn, a first surface which is adapted to interact with a first portion of tube; and a pair of sidewalls protruding from wall on the same side of wall, and comprising respective second surfaces which are adapted to interact with relative second portions of tube; first surface is at least partially concave.
