A launcher of paper products for packaging stations of paper product converting lines, including a frame with at least two launch channels, on which products are arranged, and each launch channel has opposite movable surfaces, at least one being motorized, arranged in contact with opposite sides of the respective product in the channel, to draw the product in the launch direction. The two movable surfaces are below and above the space occupied by the product in the respective channel to drag the product by acting on lower and upper sides thereof. At least a kinematic connection apparatus is provided for kinematically connecting the motorized movable surfaces of the launch channels. The movable surfaces launch simultaneously the products in the launch direction, at least one disconnection/connection device being provided for kinematically disconnecting/connecting at least one movable surface from/to the at least one kinematic connection apparatus, that can be operated on command.
A launcher of paper products for packaging stations of paper product converting lines, comprising a frame where at least two launch channels are provided, on which the products to be launched are arranged, and wherein each launch channel of said at least two launch channels has opposite movable surfaces, at least one of said opposite movable surfaces is motorized, arranged in contact with opposite sides of a respective one of said products housed in the channel, to drag the respective one of said products in the launch direction, wherein two of said opposite movable surfaces are arranged below and above the space to provide an upper side and a lower side that can be occupied by the respective one of the products in the channel, so as to drag the respective one of the products by acting on the lower side and the upper side, and wherein at least an apparatus is provided for kinematically connecting the movable surfaces which are motorized, at least one kinematic disconnection/connection device being provided for kinematically disconnecting/connecting at least one of said movable surfaces from/to the at least one kinematic connection apparatus, that can be operated on command,
