MANUFACTURING MACHINE AND MANUFACTURING METHOD FOR THE PRODUCTION OF DISPOSABLE CARTRIDGES

A manufacturing machine (9) and manufacturing method for the production of disposable cartridges (1); the following are provided: a moving conveyor (92), which moves a plurality of first seats (93), each designed to house a corresponding cartridge (1), along a horizontal moving path (P1); and at least one controlling unit (100), which is arranged along the moving conveyor (92) as to carry out a quality check of at least one cartridge (1) housed in a respective first seat (93). The controlling unit (100) has: a control drum (101), which is mounted so as to rotate, in a stepped manner, around a vertical rotation axis (102) perpendicular to the control path and feeds at least a second seat (103), which is designed to grab a corresponding cartridge (1), along an annular control path and through an exchange station (S13), in which the second seat (103) overlaps a first seat (93); and a first control device (104), which is designed to carry out a control on a cartridge (1) and is arranged in a control station (S14), which is located along the control path downstream of the exchange station (S13) and at a given distance from the moving conveyor (92).
