English term or phrase: are moved close from each other
Come tradurreste "are moved close from each other"?

"Each neck holding fork 108 is for example formed by two branches 110 movable relative to each other between an opened position (reference 110a in Figs. 3 and 4), wherein the branches 110 are spaced from each other such that a preform 2 can be inserted between the branches 110 and a container 1 can be retrieved from the neck holding fork 108, and a closed position (reference 110b in Figs 3 and 4), wherein the branches 110 are moved close from each other such as to encircle the preform 2 or the container 1 underneath its neck 8."

Italian translation:vengono spostati a poca distanza tra loro
Explanation:
La chiave sta nel non leggere "moved close" tutto insieme, che non quadra con "from". Il significato è:

are moved WHILE BEING close from each other

Explanation:
"From" deve essere un errore al posto di "to". Si dice infatti "close to" e non "close from" che è una contraddizione in termini. Forse deriva da una confusione con le frasi precedenti o comunque si tratta di un testo scritto da non madrelingua.
