Abstract

An apparatus and process for packaging a product (P) arranged on a support (2) or on a support portion (2') of a continuous support using a packaging assembly (11) configured for tightly fixing a filmportion (22) of a plastic film to said support or support portion; a conveyor (3) extends through or in correspondence of the packaging assembly (11) and is configured to move the supports (2) or thesupport portions (2') inside the packaging assembly (11); a vacuum arrangement (26) is controlled to extract - through the conveyor (3) and through holes in the support or support portion - gas present in the packaging assembly (11) between the film portion (22) and the underlying support or support portion for then forming a vacuum skin packaged product (P).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to apparatus and processes for packaging products. According to certain aspects, the present invention relates to apparatus and processes for packaging products under vacuum. According to further aspects, the present invention relates to apparatus and processes for vacuum skin packaging products. The apparatus and process of the present invention are advantageously suitable for packaging perishable products, such as, for example, food products, which would lose one or more of their properties if exposed to the ambient atmosphere. Background technique [0002] For packaging products, especially food products, vacuum packaging has been developed in the past. [0003] In known vacuum packaging processes, vacuum skin packaging is often used for packaging food products such as fresh and frozen meat and fish, cheese, processed meats, ready meals and the like. For example, described in FR 1 258 357, FR 1 286 018, AU 3 491 504,...
