ABSTRACT:
End-closures are formed on tubular food casings by means of a self-contained gathering and closing device comprising dual shutter assemblies with angular levers having thumb and finger extensions which are pivotally mounted from their respective thumb extensions for circumferentially gathering casing from a casing opening therebetween. The angular levers are positioned relative to one another such that when pivoted in the same direction travel in overlapping arcs to produce a narrowing of the casing opening as the levers converge. A punch is then actuated to apply an end-closure clip to the gathered casing.
