<p>A method for forming a layer of packages to be palletized, comprising the steps of:
-translating a first (10) of said packages along a tract of a feed line (3);
-gripping the first package (10) by means of a first gripper (2) comprising a first and a second arm (21, 22);
-moving the first and the second arm (21, 22) so as to change the orientation of the first package (10) interposed therebetween;
-releasing the first package (10) along the feed line (3) so as to continue the translation thereof along the feed line (3). The step of gripping the first package (10) comprises the steps of:
-positioning the first grip arm (21) in front of the first package (10) with respect to the direction of advancement along the feed line (3);
-positioning the second grip arm (22) in back of the first package (10) with respect to the direction of advancement along the feed line (3), the first package (10) remaining interposed between the first and the second arm (21, 22); the step of positioning the first arm (21) in front of the first package (10) takes place prior to the step of positioning the second arm (22) in back of the first package (10);
-nearing the first and the second arm (21, 22), one to the other, clenching the first package (10) therebetween.</p> |
