An apparatus for automatic remodelling of an article processing system which may be provided with a filler A and a capper B, for example, inhibits the operation of the article processing system unless a remodelling operation of all the article processing arrangements have taken place in a normal manner. When the variety of an article is changed, and therefore a remodelling operation is required, a main controller provides a signal designating the variety of another article to each of sub-controllers associated with the filler and the capper. The sub-controller associated with the filler selects remodelling data which corresponds to the variety of the article, and controls an associated drive arrangement in accordance with such data to move a remodelling arrangement to a given position. When the movement of all the remodelling arrangements to given positions is detected by a detecting arrangement, a remodelling complete signal is delivered from the respective sub-controllers to the main controller. A similar operation takes place also in the capper, and when the remodelling complete signals are received by the main controller from all of the sub-controllers, the operation of the article processing system is enabled.
