  • Patent number: 10640251
    Abstract: Automatic packaging machine (3) for filling a bag (1) made of heat-sealable material, having an open upper end (2) with a dose of loose product; the packaging machine (3) has: a packaging conveyor (4); a pick-up head (7), which is supported by the packaging conveyor (4) to advance along a packaging path (P1); an input station (S1) where the empty bag (1) is grabbed by the pick-up head (7); an output station (S2) where the full, sealed bag (1) leaves the pick-up head (7); a filling device (18) that is mounted on the packaging conveyor (4) to move together with the pick-up head (7) along the entire packaging path (P1) and is adapted to supply the dose of product inside the bag (1) through the upper open end (2); and a sealing device (19) that is mounted on the packaging conveyor (4) to move together with the pick-up head (7) along the entire packaging path (P1) and is adapted to seal the full bag (1) through a heat-seal in correspondence with the open upper end (2).

  • Publication number: 20190350210
    Abstract: A machine for making filled pasta includes first and second feeding devices for feeding first and second layers of pasta dough, and a shaping device for shaping the filled pasta, located downstream of the feeding devices. The shaping device includes a first and a second advancing and shaping roller for the first and second layers, respectively, disposed to face and be tangent to each other at a coupling station for coupling the first and second layers around a respective filling and a cutting roller acting in conjunction with one of either the first or second rollers, in particular with the second roller. The cutting roller and the roller of the shaping device it acts in conjunction with, in particular the second roller, are tangent to each other at a cutting station where each product is separated from the first and second layers.
