- a plurality of manipulators (18) programmed to pick up the individual products (P) from the belt (12) and to deposit the products (P) on said supports (16) so as to form ordered groups (G) of products on said supports (16),
wherein said conveyor (14) is formed by a linear motor including:
- a loop stator (20) having two parallel straight branches (24, 26) joined together by two curved branches (28), and
