Rotary machine (1, 100) for processing a container comprising:
- a main axis (A),
- a plurality of first stations (4, 94), each first station (4) being arranged for applying a first process to a container (8), each first station (4) rotating around the main axis (A),
- a plurality of second stations (6, 96), each second station (6) being arranged for applying a second process to a processed container (12) already processed by the first process, each second station (6, 96) rotating around the main axis (A),
- an internal exit position (14, 114), at which each first station (4) is located once said first station has completed the first process to a container (8) and is arranged to release the processed container (12),
- an internal entry position (16, 116), at which each second station (6) is arranged to receive a processed container (12) and to start applying the second process to said processed container (12),
- at least one transfer arm (22, 122) comprising a gripper element (44, 144) adapted to seize a processed container (12), said gripper element (44, 144) being movable between a first station (4) located at the internal exit position (14, 114) and a second station (6) located at the internal entry position (16, 116). |
