Abstract

An apparatus and a method therefor for continuously positioning an article, for example a carton blank (10) delivered from one feed stream (22) relative to a second article, for example an insert blank (12) delivered from a second feed stream (28) comprising one or more sensors to detect the respective positions of the first and second portions upstream of where the streams converge (14), correction means (34) to correct the position of the second article (12) relative to the first article (10), and a controller to determine the amount of adjustment required and to control the correction means (34) accordingly.
