A method and apparatus is provided for forming a cap with a pouring spout for a container. A continuous web is fed to a spout inserting apparatus which inserts a spout directly into the continuous web. The continuous web may thereafter proceed to a label applicator which applies a label to the continuous web over the spout. Thereafter, the continuous web is moved past a dye and press wherein the cap is punched out of the continuous web and the edge is folded to form a cap. Thereafter, the caps are collected, oriented and directed to a point for subsequent use. Additionally, container bottoms may be made by the same method and apparatus. In such a case, the spout is not inserted into the web. Scrap is continuously removed after the caps are cut from the continuous web. The caps may be subsequently processed, i.e. attached to the tops and bottoms of containers. |
