Abstract
Apparatus for separating folded two-on cartons is characterized by a carton supply station for advancing cartons seriatim to a separating station. At the separating station, opposite edges of each carton are gripped and first moved away from each other to pull the two-on carton apart into two separate cartons, and then moved toward each other to bring the separated cartons back together. The separated cartons are then conveyed out of the separating station while the supply station simultaneously advances the next successive two-on carton to the separating station.
