Abstract

The method allows, in a completely automatic way, to form the enveloppes of size of the article without leaving space between the welding line and the article. A folded web (30) of continuous film is longitudinally welded. Thermoplastic cutting and welding means are provided (52) transversal to the web. After opening apart from each other the wings opposite to the continuous longitudinal closed edge (33), an article (10) is transversally inserted between the thermoplastic cutting/welding means (52) and the front closed end (38). Then, at the level of the thermoplastic cutting/welding means (52), there is the transversal pinching (53) of the folded web by means of a transversal gripper (53), leaving the web (30) free of sliding through the gripper. Then, there is the pulling of the web upstream of (45) the transversal gripper and the drawing back of the web that slides through the gripper until a front edge of the article contacts the front closed end. Then, there is a further drawing back step of the web until a rear edge of the article contacts the transversal gripper, followed by the transversal cutting and welding of the web.
