Abstract
A method of wrapping products, whereby a sheet and a respective product for wrapping are fed to a wrapping station in a first and second direction incident with each other; the product travels according to a given movement through the wrapping station to engage the sheet, upon the sheet reaching a given intercept position, and to feed the sheet in the second direction to form a U-shaped wrapping; and the sheet is fed in the first direction through the wrapping station and at most into the intercept position according to any movement as a function of the length of the sheet, and subsequently travels according to the same movement as the product.

A method for wrapping products comprising feeding a sheet through a wrapping station in a first direction and at a first speed;
- feeding a product through said wrapping station in a second direction incident with said first direction and at a second speed to engage said sheet upon reaching a given intercept position, and to feed the sheet in said second direction to form a U-shaped wrapping about said product;
- and providing said first speed with a first value, depending on a length of the sheet, upstream from said intercept position, and with a second value equal to a value of said second speed downstream from said intercept position.
