A packing method and unit (12) for folding a sheet (5) of packing material about a parallelepiped-shaped article (2), the packing unit having: a conveyor (16) for feeding the article (2) along a path (P1); a feed device (18) for feeding the sheet (5) of packing material perpendicularly to the path (P1) and in front of the article (2), so the article (2), as it moves forward, intercepts and gradually folds the sheet (5) of packing material into a "U"; two lead-in devices (19) mounted to move parallel to the path (P1) and positioned on opposite sides of the article (2), so the article (2) is enclosed between the two lead-in devices (19); and an actuating device (20) for feeding the two lead-in devices (19) parallel to the path (P1) and together with the article (2), so the sheet (5) of packing material is also intercepted by the lead-in devices (19). |
