    摘要: A method for controlling the operating parameters of a sealing unit of the follower type in a product packing machine, wherein the sealing unit comprises a sealing module movable with reciprocating motion along a feed path of a tubular film to be sealed. The method is implemented in accordance with a plurality of operating parameters and comprises the step of setting the value of at least one input operating parameter selectable at least between sealing time and production speed. The method also comprises the step of calculating the values of the remaining, unselected operating parameters as a function of the set value, where one or more of the remaining operating parameters are subject to restrictions connected with the machine architecture. The method also comprises the step of checking that the values calculated are compatible with respective reference ranges and/or with the restrictions.

    摘要: Machine for making filled pasta including a feeding station, configured for feeding a layer of fresh pasta and a predetermined quantity of a semi-finished food product to a coupling space of said machine, and a coupling device configured for coupling the layer of fresh pasta and the predetermined quantity of semi-finished food product. The coupling device includes at least one pair of synchronised forming rollers configured to rotate, respectively, on a first and a second rotation shaft and defining between the m the coupling space. Moreover, the coupling device is configured for performing, at each rotation cycle of said forming rollers, the production of an element of filled pasta by progressively wrapping said layer of fresh pasta around the predetermined quantity of semi-finished food product. The coupling device is configured to rotate the forming rollers at a variable speed, between a maximum speed and a minimum speed, during a single rotation cycle.

    摘要: Described are a machine and a method for forming containers from blanks, including a plurality of shaping hoppers, an endless conveyor which defines a feed path and on which the hoppers are mounted in succession and a plurality of pushing elements which are movable in such a way as to follow the respective shaping hoppers along at least a stretch of the feed path and which have a to-and-fro operating movement towards and away from the respective hopper along a direction transverse, preferably perpendicular, to the feed path. The machine also includes folding means disposed along the feed path downstream of the pushing elements and configured to produce, respectively, a top closure and/or a bottom closure of the tubular blank.
