ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a split horn arrangement for packaging meat in a stretchable netting material, and to a method of packaging the meat using the split horn arrangement. In accordance with the invention, the split horn arrangement includes an upper member with depending side walls which overlap and cover upwardly extending side walls of a lower member so as to form a tunnel for passing the meat through. Disposed on the depending side walls are longitudinally extending rails which lift the netting material stretched over them so that the threads of the netting can be caught by the teeth of a pulling block to load the netting on the horn. The rails can also act as guides for the pulling blocks when loading the netting on the front end of the split horn. The pulling blocks include rows of fingers which grasp the lateral threads of the netting to pull the netting onto the horn.
