<p>There is provided a divider pad arrangement in the form of a strip (10) comprising four divider pads (12) each providing two rows of can seats (11) for disposition between two layers of cans. The four pads (12) are connected by lines of weakening (13) to assist separation during packing of the cans. Lower operating speeds are required to place a single strip (10) between a number of cans, compared to higher speeds if each individual pad (12) had to be placed. The arrangement shown provides four pads for 2 X 3 arrays of cans. Other size arrays can be accommodated by moving the lines of weakening (13).</p> |
