ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for assembling an apertured insert onto a rim extending from the end of a metal container and surrounding an opening therein is disclosed herein. The method contemplates inserting an expandable support member through the aperture in the insert and moving the member into engagement with the inner surface of the end of the container surrounding the opening. The insert is then forced onto the rim of the container while the end panel is supported by the support member. The apparatus consists of a first member for gripping the insert and a second member adapted to pass through the aperture in the insert with expandable means on the second member for extending beyond the periphery of the opening in the container end wall. The apparatus also incorporates drive means for moving the members and the expansible means in synchronized relation to each other.
