Abstract
A device () for forming containers () produced continuously from a tubular wrapper () fed along a substantially vertical direction of advance (A). The device has at least one support carriage () movable along a respective closed path having at least one active segment parallel to the direction of advance (A). The carriage () supports a sealing base () able to be associated to a first lateral face () of the tubular wrapper () at a sealing region (Z) of the wrapper (). A contrasting element () is removably associated to the support carriage () and movable between a first closed position in which it is approached to the base () and abuts against a second lateral face () of the tubular wrapper () opposite to the first lateral face () at the sealing region (Z), and a second position in which it is movable away from the base ().
