ABSTRACT:
A new packaging method and apparatus for positively nesting at least one workpiece in a base member comprised of permanently deformable material such as cellular urethane foam. The base member is electrostatically neutralized, cleaned and then moved onto a rotating table-like arrangement defining a circular work path and which is adapted to be selectively indexed between a plurality of individual work stations. Disposed above the work path and selectively movable toward and away therefrom is a frame member. This frame member advantageously includes individual work performing means at spaced intervals therearound adapted to be placed in operative association with selected ones of the work stations in order to achieve the desired workpiece nesting in the base member. These work performing means may facilitate various aligning, performing, compression nesting and ejection operations in any sequence which may be desired and/or necessary to accommodate different workpiece types and styles. The packaging method and apparatus allow for efficient, reliable packaging even when nesting of limited strength workpieces or a plurality of workpieces of varying dimensional sizes is required. Feed and removal mechanisms operably communicating with the work path permit sequential processing and nesting with regard to a continuous supply of base members.
