Abstract (en)

The machine includes a device (1) for collecting tubular blanks (2) and for setting them up into container, that is equipped with first gripping means (6) movable on a vertical longitudinal plane for transferring single tubular blanks (2) from a collecting station (4) to a conveying line (8) in the region of a container set up station (9), and with second gripping means (26) which cooperate with the first gripping means (6) to form a container (20). The machine includes also a device (30) for forming regular groups (110) of articles (11), that is equipped with pick up means (34) movable on a vertical plane transversal to the conveying line (8) for transferring rows of articles (11) from a feeding line (10) to a station (12), where a regular group (110) of articles (11) is built up. In the region of the grouping station (12), pusher means (48) act to introduce the group (110) into a container (20). There is also provided a device (55) for closing the container (20), situated downstream of the set up station (9) and along the conveying line (8). <IMAGE>
