Abstract
In a machine for obtaining strip packages a station feeds products to a packaging group, which places and seals each of the products in a relative welded pockets distributed along a continuous strip. In a working station, situated in cascade with the packaging group, a feeler group, a printing group, a working group, a drawing group, a cutting group cooperate to supply at the outlet a plurality of strip packages. The packaging group is arranged in a vertical configuration and the configuration of the working group is horizontal. Direction-changing means make the continuous strip pass from a vertical configuration to a horizontal one.

A machine for producing strip packages, including:
- a feeding station for feeding products to a packaging group, which places and seals each of said products in a relative welded pockets distributed on a continuous strip, which defines corresponding rows, longitudinal and transversal, of said pockets;
- at least one group, for printing data and/or codified information on each welded pocket and/or between the adjacent welded pockets;
- a working station, situated in cascade with said packaging group and aimed at supplying to an outlet section a plurality of strip packages, said working station including:
- at least one feeler group for verifying the presence of an product in each corresponding pocket;
- at least one working group for longitudinal precutting and/or cutting of the continuous strip in the portions comprised between adjacent longitudinal rows;
- at least one drawing group for moving forward the continuous strip of welded pockets;
- at least one cutting group, for transversal cutting the continuous strip in the portions comprised between the adjacent transversal rows;
- with said packaging group arranged in a substantially vertical configuration;
- and including direction-changing means for making said continuous strip pass from a substantially vertical configuration, at the outlet of said packaging group, to a substantially horizontal configuration, at the inlet of said working station.
