Abstract (en)
[origin: EP0405354A1] The method and equipment as described perform the sealing of wrappings (2) each consisting of a sheet wrapped around an article. The articles reach, singly and in sequence, a sealing station (6) equipped with dragging belts (11) which drive the article against an abutment (7) to orientate it with the wrapping ends aligned perpendicularly to the direction of the belt feed motion. The article is lifted by rollers (12) moving up and down between the dragging belts, and rotatively actuable. Thanks to rollers rotation, the article is shifted perpendicularly to the direction of dragging belts feed motion so as to subject, singly and in sequence, the opposite ends of the wrapping to the action of two sealing groups (8, 9) operating at opposite sides of the sealing station. Subsequently, the rollers are lowered and the packaged article is taken away from the sealing station by means of the dragging belts.
