Machinery for three dimensionally forming register cut paper articles such as plates, bowls and saucers is operated with a single, register controlled material supply web and a 2:1 cyclic speed differential between the blank cutting station and the hot forming press. Rotational drive speed of the machine is set and limited by the cycle rate of the hot forming press but two or more, register cut product units are cut and stacked from a single ply, registered controlled web supply within a single cycle interim of the forming press. Consequently, the speed limiting step of the entire machine continues, with a single ply web supply to operate with a high percentage of maximum productivity. |

A bottom for a paper cup is formed by advancing a punch against a paperboard web to push the web against a cutting edge which cuts out a circular cup bottom blank from the web. The punch is kept in a forward state to clamp an outer peripheral portion of the blank immovably against a surface of a sleeve. A reciprocable draw is advanced against a center portion of the blank to push the center portion into a circular opening of the sleeve while maintaining the clamping force, to cause the center portion of the blank to become stretched. The clamping force is then progressively released to permit the outer peripheral portion to enter the opening and become bent to form a lip extending at a substantially right angle. The lip is compressed within a gap formed between the draw and a surface of the opening. Because of the stretching of the blank, pleats formed in the lip are only in the form of micropleats that are flattened in a non-folded over state. |

A cut and score die apparatus is provided for progressively converting a sheet of material into blanks. The apparatus includes a punching section for punching scrap material from the sheet of material to define an array of interconnected blanks arranged in a grid of rows and columns on the sheet of material. A scoring section is provided for simultaneously scoring a first predetermined pattern on a trailing portion of a first row of blanks and a second predetermined pattern on the leading portion of a second, succeeding row of blanks on the sheet of material. A blanking section is also provided for piercing the sheet of material in a predetermined pattern to cut blanks from the sheet of material without producing any additional scrap material. |

An apparatus which coacts with a fitment application machine to index a die cut fitment web for precise registration and sealing of fitments to carton die cut areas. The apparatus includes an indexing wheel which has a plurality of circumferentially spaced indentations which engage void areas in the web defined by the fitments upon their removal. A gear and rack assembly intermittently rotate the indexing wheel advancing the web through the fitment application machine for sealing operations. Precise adjustment and indexing of the web is effected by a locating pin which engages corresponding bores in the indexing wheel to lock the wheel at defined pre-set circumferential positions. |

A bottom blank maker workstation for a cup making machine is disclosed. The cup making machine is of the type having a rotating turret and a plurality of mandrels arranged to interact with a plurality of workstations. The turret moves each mandrel in a stepwise fashion through the plurality of workstations where a bottom blank and a sidewall blank are formed and attached to one another to create a container. The workstation includes a reciprocable punch and draw that cooperate with an abutment surface and a series of protrusions to impress the lip of the bottom blank with a series of indentations. The indentations promote a better seal to the sidewall blank. |
