ABSTRACT:
An apparatus and method for forming flat-out carton blanks into erected cartons and transferring the cartons from a forming head to a takeaway conveyor is disclosed. The apparatus includes a forming die with forming guides to receive the head and erect the carton side panels to an upright position relative to the carton bottom panel. Presser fingers pivotally secured to the forming guides transfer the erected carton away from the forming head. A differential air pressure source provides negative pressure to a manifold below the conveyor and against the bottom of the carton, and positive pressure through a nozzle to the top. This action efficiently transfers the carton to the takeaway conveyor and assures firm seating of the carton on the conveyor.
