Abstract: An apparatus for securing handles onto a stream of bags sequentially transported on a first conveyer and then is engaged by a second conveyer. The second conveyer interacts with the first conveyer to receive the bags and take them through a series of stations. At one of these stations, handles are attached to each of the bags. A supply of handle material is cut into flat strips. The flat strips are bent into a U-shape and the legs thereof are fastened onto the bags.
