Abstract

Infusion packages are produced in a machine (2) and stacked in carriers (6). The carriers (6) are conveyed to a transfer means (10) where the stacks of packages are transferred into transfer chambers which move the stacks to overlie open mouthed containers (12), into which the packages are deposited.
