Abstract

The invention provides a machine and method for erecting, from a collapsed condition to an erected condi­ tion, a carton having a tray-like configuration. The machine comprises means for withdrawing a collapsed carton from a supply, means for moving apart top and bottom wall panels of the carton to bring the carton into a tubular configura­ tion, means for causing a first end closure panel at each end of the tubular structure to be brought into a position to close the ends of the tubular structure, means for causing a second end closure panel at each end of the tubular struc­ ture to be brought into overlapping relationship with re­ spect to said first end closure panels, and means for caus­ ing portions of said second end closure panels to be inser­ ted into openings provided in one of the top or bottom wall panels of the carton to maintain the carton in its erected condition.
