ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for separating pendent tail scrap from the bottoms of containers advanced continuously in series by exerting a tensile force between each advancing container and the pendent tail. Each container is advanced with its pendent tail extending through a slot in a conveyor, and counter rotation rollers grip and pull the tail to cause the separation. A method of operation includes advancing a series of containers and progressively gripping the flash of each advancing container from the leading edge to the trailing edge thereof, and pulling the flash simultaneously as the gripping occurs to cause separation of the flash from the leading to the trailing edge thereof by exertion of tensile force applied between the tail and the bottom of the container.
