Abstract
Clamping device and method to temporarily clamp, in a mixing machine (), a container () containing a fluid product, comprising two clamping elements (), opposite each other and able to clamp the container () in a determinate position. A movement mechanism (), controlled by a control unit (), is able to reciprocally move the clamping elements () and impart thereto a clamping force (F) or clamping impulse, according to the actual height (L) of the container (). The control unit () is also able to calculate, as a function of the clamping force (F), a relative clamping speed (v), at which to move reciprocally the two clamping elements () so as to clamp the container.
