ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for, and a method of, placing an elongated insert 1 in a can 2 through a narrow top opening 6 has a head assembly 10 formed by a sleeve 21 slidable over a core 20. The core 20 has an inclined end face 23 with a vacuum suction port 25. The insert 1 is picked up from a delivery chute by vacuum suction through port 25 to be held on the end face 23 in a first orientation. The head assembly 10 is displaced with the insert attached thereto and moved into the can 2 whilst maintaining the insert 1 in its first orientation. The insert abuts the can base 3 and the sleeve 21 is displaced over the core 20 to abut the insert 1 and pivot the insert on the base 3 into a second position of orientation in which the opposed ends of the insert frictionally engage the can side wall 4 to retain the insert in the can.
