ABSTRACT:
The machine is provided to wrap with a film portion a tray containing food products, the trays being inserted through a side device (13) having weighing scales which trays can moreover be labelled. The film insertion and cutting means comprise a carrier (3) joined to a cam (9) which on turning causes the said carrier to move forwards and backwards, whereas the cutting device has a blade (12) mounted upon a support, which is also driven by the cam (9) in such a way that the carrier and blade movements are synchronised. The machine includes a weighing station located under the carrier, and an electric station with all the power and control means of the machine as such, moreover incorporating tray lifting means that allow the lift to be used to handle variously sized trays, automatically and without having to change parts or elements. The machine also has a film insertion system that allows the film roll to be used to be changed fully automatically, the system comprising a frame driven by an eccentric, the former moving vertically in functional combination with a pair of film insertion carriers, by coupling to a drive carrier that is transversely displaceable by tightening means associated to the actual film cutting synchrony cam, the film insertion carrier to be used being selected by means of a number of locking and drive bolts that involve each of the carriers depending upon their relative positions to the drive carrier.
