Abstract: A system for applying a stamp to packs within a carton includes a conveyor system including a plurality of spring arms and a ceiling plate positioned above the spring arms. The system also includes a carton opening system positioned at a first station along the conveyer system, a pack stamping system positioned at a second station along the conveyer system, and a carton closing system positioned at a third station along the conveyor system; wherein the spring arms bias the cartons against the ceiling plate to position the packs at a predetermined distance form the carton opening system, pack stamping system and carton closing system. A method for applying a stamp to packs within a carton includes biasing the carton along a conveyor system, and positioning the packs within the carton at a predetermined location from operation stations based on the biasing.

Abstract: A system for applying a stamp to packs within a carton includes a conveyor system and a stamping system positioned along the conveyor system. The stamping system includes a stamp cartridge and a stamp applicator positioned adjacent the stamp cartridge. The cartridge dispenses stamps and the applicator applies the dispensed stamps to the packs. A method for applying a stamp to packs within a carton includes advancing at least one carton having a plurality of packs to a stamping station, dispensing stamps from a stamp cartridge positioned at the stamping station, and applying the dispensed stamps to the packs.

Abstract: A system for applying a stamp to packs within a carton includes a conveyor drum system including a plurality of clamps and a floor plate positioned adjacent the clamps. The system further includes a carton opening system positioned at a first station along the conveyor drum system, a pack stamping system positioned at a second station along the conveyor drum system, and a carton closing system positioned at a third station along the conveyor drum system. The clamps are opened to receive at least one carton and the floor plate moves upward to position the packs at a predetermined operating distance and wherein the clamps are closed to hold the carton at the predetermined operating distance while the carton is rotated through the carton opening system, pack opening system and carton closing system.
