Abstract

See full text

A method for handling elongated articles wherein the articles are removed from a hopper, combined to form a group of articles, and supplied as a group of articles to a packaging process, wherein the formation of the articles in the group corresponds to the formation of the articles in the packaging process. The articles are removed from the hopper and are transferred to a pocket of a first intermediate conveyor as part groups with layers of several articles, wherein the number of layers of articles in the pocket of the first intermediate conveyor is smaller than the number of layers of articles in the group, and the part groups are transferred from the first intermediate conveyor to a second intermediate conveyor, and several part groups are transferred together as a group from the second intermediate conveyor to a removal conveyor, which supplies the group to a packaging device.
