ABSTRACT:
A machine for inserting a pouring spout at a precise, predetermined position on a canister wall, which machine consists of a first holding means that releasably holds a canister on a carriage that moves in a discontinuous manner through a series of work stations. At one of the work stations, the canister is temporarily released by the first holding means and captured by second holding means associated with a turntable that is rotatably positioned by means responsive to a control signal generated from scanning means at the work station, which sense the position of an indexing mark on the canister. After the turntable and the canister are positioned, the canister is released by the second holding means and carried by an elevator back to the carriage where the canister is held in the indexed position by the first holding means and continues through the remainder of the work stations. At subsequent work stations, pouring spouts in blank form are fed to a carrier positioned near the zone on the canister intended to receive the spout. A ram in the carrier acts to simultaneously form one spout from the blanks while synchronously coacting with a mandrel to push another formed spout through and secure it to the canister wall.
