ABSTRACT:
Method and apparatus whereby a predetermined number of packages are moved over a cushion of air into a horizontal row, following which the row is deposited on an elevator which is then depressed a distance equal to the thickness of the packages. This is repeated until a desired number of rows of packages are deposited on the elevator thereby forming the packages into stacks, following which the stacks are moved laterally off the elevator on to a conveyor. The elevator is moved successively to shift the stacks into a position where they can be fed into a carton packaging machine.
