Abstract
In a machine for erecting tray cartons about one or more articles such as pairs of twelve pack beverage cartons, an end panel folding and sealing assembly is provided with folding plates that move with the tray carton in the downstream direction as the plates fold and hold the tray end panels against the tray end flaps while the glue sets to adhesively bond the end panels and flaps together.
