A folding and tucker-tacker station operates upon a flat bottom end closure of a packaging sleeve, which closure comprises four panels 6, 8, 9 and 17 and a minor panel 12 protruding from the outermost edge of the panel 8. The station comprises a mounting 30 to 33 supporting three jaws 39c, 42 and 43 oscillatable transversely of the sleeve axis A for folding inwards the respective panels 8, 9, and 7, and a jaw 40 displaceable along, but not transversely of, the axis A for folding inwards the panel 6. The jaw 39c has a recess 39d for receiving the minor panel 12. The jaw 40 is disposed after the jaw 39c along the path of a mandrel 48 transporting the sleeve. <IMAGE> |
