Abstract: A cartoner includes an entrance section, a loading section, an exit section, a transport system and a controller. The entrance section is configured for picking carton blanks from a magazine and folding a first side of the carton. The loading section is configured for loading a product into the first-side-folded carton. The exit section is configured for closing the loaded carton. The transport system is configured for transporting the first-side-folded carton from the entrance section to the loading section and the loaded carton from the loading section to the exit section. The controller is arranged for controlling an operation following each carton through the cartoner. The controller is further arranged for adapting, for each carton, a distance between two consecutive carriers of the transport system in dependence to a size of the first-side-folded carton and driving the two consecutive carriers maintaining the distance.

Abstract: A method for fitting a piping nozzle (1) or a part of a piping nozzle (1) in a piping bag (2) comprises placing the piping nozzle (1) in an initial position (3), which initial position (3) is situated at a substantial distance from a piping position (5) located in the piping bag (2), using a piping nozzle applicator (4), which is movable between the initial position (3) and the piping position (5), to releasably engage with the piping nozzle (1) at the initial position (3), using the piping nozzle applicator (4) to bring the piping nozzle (1) from the initial position (3) substantially to the piping position (5) in the piping bag (2), releasing the piping nozzle (1) from the piping nozzle applicator (4) at the piping position (5), and pulling the piping nozzle applicator (4) back from the piping position (5).

Abstract: The present invention refers to a device for a machine for handling of sausage between a sausage feeder and a delivering device for sausage to a package with a conveyor operating between the feeder and the delivering device. According to the invention a number of flaps are located above the conveyor divided by carriers into compartments. The flaps are arranged to extend substantially in line with passing carrier and forming an extension of the same. The functions of the flaps is to act on sausage to be directed in said compartment before delivering of the sausage to packing.
