Abstract: A rotary horizontal table is provided and has item delivery structure associated therewith for supplying items to be packaged to the table and a plurality of stationary worker positions are disposed about the table slightly outwardly of the periphery thereof. Rotary container support structure spaced apart in a generally circular path substantially concentric with the axis of rotation of the table is also provided and supported for simultaneous angular displacement about the table with the support structure substantially registered with the outer periphery of the table. Workpersons disposed at the worker positions may manually transfer items from the table to containers supported from the container support structure and first drive structure is operatively connected to the table for rotating the latter while second drive structure is operably connected to the container support structure for angularly displacing the latter.
