FIELD: food-processing industry, in particular, packaging of meat products into doubled casing.
SUBSTANCE: apparatus has base, synchronized charging device and high-speed machine for applying of clips, between which device and machine forming unit is positioned. Forming unit converts film adapted for wrapping around food products and supplied in the form of bobbin into tubular member which may be put onto charging tube on which another tube is positioned, said another tube carrying outer casing attached to base formed by tubular netted casing. Invention is characterized in that tubes of small diameter are used, said diameter being much smaller than diameter of ready product, so that film is adapted to tube after multiple longitudinal creases are formed on said film. Method involves providing multiple laying of tubular creased netted member using pressure applied by pumping system of apparatus for providing radial expansion of film and tubular netted member for obtaining final diameter of ready product, which may be altered in accordance with speed at which product is separated from machine for applying of double clips.
EFFECT: increased efficiency and wider operational capability.
