Elongate packs (3) of circular biscuits are fed at high speed from a wrapping output conveyor (1) to a transverse indexing conveyor (2). The indexing conveyor (2) has a series of compartments (12) with inclined sides, each compartment (12) receiving a pair of packs (3) end to end. The conveyor (2) indexes each time that it receives a pair of packs (3), the compartments (12) holding the packs (3) against movement longitudinally of the conveyor (2). The packs (3) are removed in groups from the indexing conveyor (2) and urged together on a tray (19) of adjustable dimension. Orientation of the packs (3) is maintained, for consistent presentation of printing ABCD. |
