Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé et une machine pour transformer des emballages de matériau souple scellés en cubes dans lesquels l'emballage initial est fixé et bloqué par un jeu de mâchoires de fixation par la zone transversale de chaque face. Ensuite, un des côtés latéraux de l'emballage est frappé par une mâchoire d'impact, les deux rabats sont scellés au moyen de mâchoires de scellement et de coupe, l'emballage étant pivoté à 180 degrés pour sa consolidation postérieure, puis deux systèmes d'occlusion ralentissent et dosent les fluides liquides des emballages au moyen de lignes multiples de labyrinthe de soudage scellant les deux faces pour qu'ensuite au moyen d'un jeu de deux plaques parallèles de pincement, elles se fixent au rabat et que l'une des platines se colle à une des faces du rabat.
