Method for packing products and subsequently drying them used in tobacco industry - includes packets completed as they travel along wrapping parts being fed successively to distributing device and selectively fed to input of one of two drying conveyors parallel to each other
The method comprises the steps of feeding the products (3) successively and at a first given frequency (F1) along a wrapping path (5) extending through a number of folding stations (10) where a sheet (4) of wrapping material, at least partly coated with gum, is gradually folded about each product (3) to form a respective packet (11). The next step is feeding the finished packets (11) along drying member (18) to permit the gum to dry; characterised in that the finished packets (11) are fed along the drying member (18) at a second frequency (F2) lower than the first frequency (F1). The finished packets (11) are fed along the drying member (18) along at least two drying paths (24) parallel to each other. The finished packets (11) are fed successively to the drying member (18) by means of a distributing device (26) for selectively feeding each packet (11) to an input (25) of a respective drying path (24).
