The machine includes an intermittently rotatable cutter for severing the web between adjacent containers as well as a conveyor allowing mounting of interchangeable container supports of different sizes which cooperate with the cutter to rotate same to sever the web. The cutter need not be adjusted or modified when the container supports are changed and automatically accommodates the different sized supports.
