An apparatus for treating cores has an endless conveyor operable with discrete intermittent movements between a plurality of preselected positions defined in a predetermined course of the endless conveyor with a preselected dwell period between each of the discrete intermittent movements, respectively. A set of drives for the endless conveyor includes a coupler associated with each drive for engagement with the endless conveyor only during the preselected dwell periods, and means for intermittently moving the drives only when the couplers are engaged with the endless conveyor, respectively.

Apparatus for treating cores

A method of operating apparatus to treat with a hardenable liquid adhesive material a plurality of cores each having a winding means with a pair of opposite end turn groupings thereon. An endless conveyor is operable with discrete intermittent movement to dispose a plurality of spindles for carrying the cores in a plurality of preselected indexed positions. In some of these indexed positions, the liquid adhesive material is dispensed onto the opposite end turns of the winding means on the cores carried by the spindles which are rotated while in the some preselected indexed positions.
