<p>A device that builds up regular groups (20) of articles (2) includes gripping means (7) for picking up a row of articles (2) fed along a conveyor (5), in the region of a pick-up station (4). A robotic unit (15) controls the movement of the gripping means (7), along two perpendicular axes, and on a vertical plane transversal to the conveyor (5), so as to transfer the row of articles (2) picked up into a grouping frame (21) located in a station (10) where a regular group (20) of articles (2) is built up. A pushers (27) and the grouping frame (21) together delimit a space where a regular group is built up by subsequent placements of rows of articles (2). <IMAGE></p> |
