The crimping device is used in a machine for closing containers comprising a turret (21) rotatable according to a vertical axis, peripherally carrying a plurality of support means (22) for the containers (2) provided with a closure cap (3); handling means for said support means (22) to drive in rotation said containers (2) according to their own axis; a corresponding plurality of crimping heads (30) carried by said turret (21) respectively at said support means (22) and carrying each a crimping blade (31) which is tilting between a disengagement position and an approached working position to said cap (3). The crimping device comprises a plurality of abutment members (25) predisposed to act as an upper abutment for the closure cap (3) of the containers (2) and means (35) predisposed to transmit the clamping force of said cap (3) detected by said abutment members (25) to transducer means (40), for the control of the crimping force. |
