  • Patent number: 11492165
    Abstract: A working line is for fluidic or fluid products contained in pre-dosed containers. The container includes a cover and/or lid for closing the container. The working line includes a first manipulation station having a manipulator to manipulate the cover and/or lid to remove the cover and/or lid from the container to open the container. A working station carries out at least one operation on the fluid product contained in the container after the removal of the cover and/or lid from the container. A second manipulation station includes a manipulator to manipulate the cover and/or lid to associate the cover and/or lid with the container to close the container. A transportation system moves the pre-dosed containers among different stations. The working station is located between the first manipulation station and the second manipulation station. The manipulator manipulates covers and/or lids associable with the container through joint-type and/or screw-type devices.

  • Patent number: 11378939
    Abstract: A method automatically controls stores for a processing line for containers pre-dosed with fluid products. The identifying code for each container is determined and then checked whether the container is necessary for production orders received. The container is introduced into a first store and the quantity and identifying codes of the containers in the first store are recorded. Production orders are checked for products yet to be started. The containers are picked up and sent towards a first manipulation station and at least one production order of a product is processed and the containers are sent towards different stations. Quality control inspection is conducted and if the product is compliant, introduced into a second store. Containers with non-compliant product are introduced into a control line. The quantity of containers in the second store is recorded and the containers are sent towards a packaging station to fulfill production orders.
