Abstract: An apparatus for forming monolithic compressed wood pallets with increased load capacity includes a storage component having a chamber for collecting the mixture, inside which a first conveyor belt is accommodated for feeding a uniform layer of mixture toward an outlet. The first belt is wound around at least one motorized roller and entrained by it with a feed speed. The apparatus also includes a pressing component with a lower mold part and an upper mold part between which a receptacle for forming a pallet is provided. A second conveyor belt is interposed between the storage component and the pressing component. The apparatus further includes a component for modulating at least one among feed speed, the advancement speed, and the translation speed so as to obtain adjustment of quantity of mixture loaded/unloaded on/from upper portion of the second belt along an extension of the mat.

Abstract: There is described a packaging apparatus for forming a plurality of sealed packages from a tube of a web of packaging material which is continuously filled with a pourable product. The packaging apparatus comprises a delimiting element arranged, in use, within the tube and being designed to divide the tube, in use, in a first space and a second space. The packaging apparatus also comprises a pressurizing device for pressurizing the second space by a sterile gas withdrawn from the inner environment of an isolation chamber within which the tube is formed. Furthermore, the delimiting element is also designed to allow, in use, a leakage flow of sterile gas from the second space into the first space.
