ABSTRACT:
A container sealer and associated method are disclosed for successively applying a sealing tape to a seam between a lid and a container body for a plurality of containers and their respective lids. The sealer comprises a conveyor for advancing a plurality of generally circular containers along a substantially linear and substantially horizontal predetermined path of travel; idler rollers for temporarily holding a single container in an upright and stationary position along the predetermined path of travel; and a movable tape head operatively associated with and adjacent the idler rollers, the movable tape head being movable between a tape-applying position adjacent the predetermined path of travel and a retracted position removed from the predetermined path of travel, for applying a predetermined length of sealing tape to a held and rotating container adjacent idler rollers, the length of the sealing tape being measured in relation to a circumference of each container.
