Blister packs in a first and a second pick position are arranged one behind the other in a longitudinal row, which is parallel to a longitudinal center plane of the transfer unit and which extends in an area of the longitudinal center plane. The first blister pack in the first pick position is picked, moved, and placed in the first place position from above. The second blister pack in the second pick position is also picked, moved, and placed in the second place position from above. The blister packs in the first and second place positions are arranged with a lateral offset relative to the longitudinal center plane, and the blister packs in the first and second place positions are rotated 180 around their centers in comparison to their orientation in the first and second pick positions.

A rotating cam device is provided for a pick-up head with pick-up members arranged side by side and at a variable distance; the device extends along a horizontal axis an has a first cam and at least a second cam, which extend around the horizontal axis, are suitable to be engaged by tappet elements carried by a first and a second pick-u member, respectively, and at least partly have a sloped or spiral shape for causing a translation of the tappet elements parallel to the horizontal axis in response to a rotation of the first and second cams about the horizontal axis; the second cam is movable in respect to the first cam along the horizontal axis, at least when the device is installed in the pick-up head and rotates around the horizontal axis.

A system for packing a flow of first and second mirrored, irregular tetrahedral packages, each package has two sealed fins, two isosceles right triangle panels and two elongated right triangle panels, where the two isosceles right triangle panels share a leg, and the two elongated right triangle panels share a hypotenuse. The system includes a divider, conveyor, first packing carrier, a first robot picker, a second package carrier and a second robot picker.

A pickup and delivery station for products includes a movement arm that is articulated with respect to a fixed frame and supports, at its free end, at least one respective grip component for a product. The free end of the arm includes at least one track for two carriages for supporting at least one respective shaft that supports the grip component. A linear actuator, which is substantially parallel to the direction of the track, is associated with one of the carriages for its movement along the track, from a configuration of separation from the other carriage to a configuration of proximity thereto. The shaft of a respective grip component is coupled to a second linear actuator that is perpendicular to the first one for the offset of the respective grip component with respect to the contiguous ones.
