Abstract (en)

The tail end (X) of the wrapping film, gathered in a bundle, is gripped in synchronism by a secondary gripper (PS) designed to be able to perforate subsequently, by itself or with the aid of suitable means, a wall of the pocket (S) formed in the terminal part of the wrapping film and, when this gripper has entered with the tail end into the pocket, it opens so as to release the said tail end and then exits through the entry hole (F), leaving the tail end inside the pocket which is then eliminated and closed so as to fix inside it the said tail end of the wrapping. <IMAGE>
