ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a system and process for loading containers with formed product. The system includes a container transport assembly, a product transport assembly and a combined transport assembly. The container transport assembly advances and positions the containers along a first path towards a loading zone. The product transport assembly advances and positions the formed product along a second path towards the loading zone. The combined transport assembly defines a third path away from the loading zone. The first path and the second path share at least one common direction of travel and each path is in part independent of the other and each path is in part merged with the other. The formed product is loaded into the containers as the paths merge. Thereafter, the containers with formed product loaded therein are advanced away from the loading zone along the third path.
