A method and apparatus for bundling beds of pipes using an intermediate cradle, a single removal sled, and a shovel prior to banding. Following delivery of pipe beds to the apparatus by a horizontal conveyor, a shovel repeatedly piles beds of pipes into an intermediate cradle, which subsequently passes the bundles to a removal sled for banding. An intermediate cradle passes obliquely above and below a removal sled to transfer the pipe bundles. |
