Abrégé

Disclosed is an automated system for changing over a can line. An example rotating turret with multiple can twists is used to align various can twists with a production line. The rotation of the turret is motorized and includes a system for precisely measuring the rotation of the turret and locking the turret in place at preselected orientations. Feed assemblies with moveable guide rails and transfer bars are configured to receive product from, or pass product to, the twists on the turret. The horizontal and vertical movements of the feed assembly guide rails, and the transfer bars, may be motorized. Various measures may be implemented to protect both the system from damage and operators of the system from injury.

Abrégé

This invention structurally includes an adjustable guide rail system for laterally adjustably guiding and axially rotatably manipulating containers, such as cans, passed axially between the guide rail systems and with structure to simply and easily facilitate adjustment of the system to adjust to various series of different size cans to guide multiple series of different size cans there through by rotating a cylinder through which the cans passed to present a different passage for each respective series of different size cans.
