A machine for packing tetrahedral products is disclosed which includes a conveyor belt driven in a first direction (F1) along a longitudinal direction (L), as well as a first handling means suitable for grasping tetrahedral products carried the conveyor belt. The first handling means has a handling head suitable for grasping a plurality of tetrahedral products arranged on the conveyor belt, in which one or more accumulators suitable for accumulating the tetrahedral products in a row are arranged along the conveyor belt. A rotating device is arranged along the conveyor belt before the accumulators for rotating a tetrahedral product with an orientation substantially opposite with respect to the preceding tetrahedral product on the same conveyor belt. The present invention also relates to a process which can be carried out by the machine, as well as a container and/or a packaging filled by means of such machine and/or process.
Machine for packing tetrahedral products, which comprises a conveyor belt driven in a first direction (F1) along a longitudinal direction (L), as well as a first handling means suitable for grasping tetrahedral products carried by the conveyor belt, wherein the first handling means comprises a handling head suitable for grasping a plurality of tetrahedral products arranged on the conveyor belt, in which one or more accumulators suitable for accumulating the tetrahedral products on one or more rows are arranged along the conveyor belt, wherein rotating device is arranged along the conveyor belt before the accumulators for rotating a tetrahedral product with an orientation substantially opposite with respect to the preceding tetrahedral product on the conveyor belt.
Process for packing tetrahedral products, comprising:
Container and/or packaging containing tetrahedral products that are arranged along at least one row with the lower faces arranged substantially on the same plane (LT) and with an orientation substantially opposite with respect to the previous tetrahedral product, wherein the tetrahedral products are arranged on at least two rows and at least two layers, in which the tetrahedral products of the second or further layer have an opposite and complementary orientation with respect to the immediately underlying tetrahedral products and the upper surfaces of the tetrahedral products of the second layer are arranged substantially on a same plane, which is substantially parallel to the plane on which the lower surfaces of the tetrahedral products of the first layer lie.
