Abstract (en)
[origin: EP0086754A2] A packaging machine for articles or products, of the type in which the article, preferably disposed on a tray or container (10), is wrapped with a film of transparent plastic material.The machine comprises microprocessor control, and incorporates a weighing unit and a labelling unit. The mechanical drive actions are distributed selectively by a main shaft (50) which is constantly rotated by worm-gearwheel couplings (51-61, 52-62, 53-63, 54-64) controlled by electromagnetic clutches (71, 73, 74), A peripheral cam contour associated with microswtiches controls the elementary operations of each individual phase, which requires one complete revolution of the corresponding gear wheel. The operating stages can be selected so as to enable the weighing unit, the labelling unit etc. to be used alone. A lifting-plate (20) is formed from a matrix structure of support members (400) able to pass through the horizontal product conveyor, and the resting surfaces of the support members can be swivelled to facilitate folding the plastics sheet, without compromising the support stability.
