Abstract: An apparatus for packaging articles, in particular a stack of insulation panels, includes an element for supplying a stack of articles to a transfer position, and an adjustable spout forming a discharge channel having a receiving end and a distal end. The apparatus is further operative to wrap the stack with a packaging foil material, and transfer it into the spout. The adjustable spout comprises at least four spout members which are moveable relative to each other so as to vary the height and the width of the spout.

Abstract: The present invention concerns a method and apparatus for packaging articles, in particular a stack of insulation panels, said apparatus comprising means for supplying a stack comprising one or more articles (1) to a transfer position (3), an adjustable spout (5) providing a discharge channel and having a receiving end and a distal end and with packaging means (6) provided adjacent the distal end, so that the stack is received at the receiving end and discharged at the distal end provided with a packaging foil material, means for transferring said stack in a transfer direction into the spout, wherein the adjustable spout comprises at least four spout members (51, 51, 53, 54), where a plurality of the spout members are moveable relative to each other in one or more directions perpendicular to the transfer direction for increasing or decreasing the height and the width of the spout.
