ABSTRACT

A packaging unit for packaging articles into boxes includes a mandrel and a
folding device. The mandrel is configured to accommodate at least one of the
articles and is adapted to be at least partially wrapped by a blank. The blank
has an outer flap and an inner flap intended to be mutually overlapped and
fixed so as to form a partially closed box. The folding device is configured
to abut and fold the inner flap of the blank in the direction of the mandrel
when the blank is at least partially wrapped onto the mandrel. A method for
packaging articles into boxes includes arranging, abutting, and folding with
the packaging unit.
