Abstract (en)
There is described a package forming unit (17) for forming packages (2) from an advancing tube (3) comprising at least one jaw assembly (18) for forming a respective package (2) from the advancing tube (3). The jaw assembly (18) comprises a pair (46) of interaction tabs (47) adapted to interact with the tube (3) for exerting a pulling force and being controllable between a first limit configuration and a second limit configuration and a cam follower (49) adapted to interact with a cam arrangement (50) and being coupled to the pair (46) of interaction tabs (47) for controlling the pair (46) of interaction tabs (47) between the first limit configuration and the second limit configuration. The cam arrangement comprises an initial cam portion (57) for controlling the pair (46) of interaction tabs (47) into the first limit configuration, the initial cam portion (57) having a guiding surface (58) for guiding the cam follower (49) so as to define the first limit configuration of the pair (46) of interaction tabs (57) and a delimiting surface (59) for limiting movement of the cam follower into a direction (D) transversal to and away from the guiding surface (58).
