Abstract (en)

[origin: WO0068086A1] A device carries out a method according to which two blister packs (2) are picked up at a cutting station (3) and transferred to a conveying line (4) by means of transfer arms (11, 12) having different lengths and equipped with suction cups (13, 14). The transfer arms (11, 12) are supported by a pair of parallel rotating shafts (15, 16) having rotation axes (15b, 16b) crosswise to the advancement direction (Z) of said conveying line (4). The conveying line (4) includes two side by side conveyors (41, 42) and a third conveyor (43) situated downstream. A pair of blister packs (2) are picked up at the cutting station (3) and transferred, offset, to the side by side conveyors (41, 42) and then moved alternately to said third conveyor (43) by a pair of pushers (61, 62).
