ABSTRACT:
A total system and method for storage and delivery of heads of various sizes is disclosed. The system and method are particularly adapted for application of circular disc heads to the end of a paper roll during a roll wrapping operation. A plurality of vertically spaced storage racks are provided for handling different sized heads, and a head dispenser including a pickup mechanism for lifting an uppermost head from a storage rack and delivering it to a pickup platen is also provided. The storage racks are preferably inclined to allow gravity feed to indexing positions at the lower ends of each rack. The pickup platen operates independently of the pickup mechanism so that heads can be lifted from the storage rack while the platen is enroute to the pickup location.
