Abstract (en)

The present invention regards an automated machine employed in the field of production of jewelry articles for making ornamental chains of different varieties. The machine comprises a first rotatable support base (10) provided with first operating heads (100) adapted to produce different meshes for ornamental chains, and a second rotatable support base (20) provided with second operating heads (200) provided with grippers adapted to cooperate with the first operating heads (100) for moving the meshes of the chains. In addition, the machine comprises a control unit which, by means of movement means (11, 21), drives the support bases (10, 20) to rotate in order to bring a selected first operating head (100) and a selected second operating head (200) to a work station (50) in order to be able to change the type of meshes of the chain, allowing the production, in a simple and inexpensive manner, of multiple different models of ornamental chains.
