[origin: EP3822180A1] A packaging machine (134) and packaging method for the insertion of disposable cartridges (1) in respective blister packs (135), each of which contains at least two pockets (136, 137, 138), which are oriented differently to accommodate two respective cartridges (1) oriented differently from one another. The following are provided: a packaging conveyor (146), which feeds a plurality of blister packs (135), all with the same orientation, along a packaging path (P4); a feeding conveyor (140), which feeds a plurality of seats (142), designed to house corresponding cartridges (1) all with the same orientation, along a feeding path (P3); and a transfer unit (149), which is designed to pick up the cartridges (1) from the seats (142) of the feeding conveyor (140) and to deposit them in the pockets (136, 137, 138) of respective blister packs (135) carried by the packaging conveyor (146). The transfer unit (149) has: a first transferring device (150) designed to pick up at least one cartridge (1) from a seat (142) of the feeding conveyor (140) and to deposit the cartridge (1) with a first orientation and in a first pocket (136, 137) of a respective blister pack (135) carried by the packaging conveyor (146); and a second transferring device (151), which is autonomous and independent of the first transferring device (150) and is designed to pick up at least one cartridge (1) from a seat (142) of the feeding conveyor (140) and to deposit the cartridge (1) with a second orientation different from the first orientation and in a second pocket (138) of a respective blister pack (135) carried by the packaging conveyor (146).
