Abstract (en)

A method of driving manufacturing machines, in particular of cigarette packaging machines, or similar, of the type comprising a plurality of operating units, that act in combination and in a synchronized manner between each other to carry out manufacturing steps and that are driven individually or in groups by separate drive motors controlled by a central control unit, some of the manufacturing steps that are carried out by at least some of the operating units being such that the stopping of the machine and of the said operating units entails the loss or damage of at least the part being manufactured in one of the said operating units or in the concatenation of some operating steps succeding each other and that take place in additional successive operating units. The invention foresees an abovementioned method in which the operating units are stopped or started individually or in groups in cascade connection between each other that is at least in part at different times. The invention also relates to a machine for realizing of said method. <IMAGE> <IMAGE>
