Abstract

This invention relates to a machine for manufacturing a liner for a container. In particular this invention relates to a machine for manufacturing a liner from a thin film polymeric material that is used to line a container made from a paperboard material. An apparatus for opening a sleeve of thin sheet material in a machine for manufacturing a container liner comprises a support surface on which the sleeve is supportable in a closed configuration such that a first part of the sleeve is adjacent a second part of the sleeve, the second part of the sleeve is in contact with the support surface and the second part of the sleeve is disposed between the first part of the sleeve and the support surface; and a coupling assembly switchable from a first configuration in which the coupling assembly is engageable with the first part of the sleeve when the sleeve is in the closed configuration, to a second configuration to draw the first part of the sleeve into an open configuration, wherein the coupling assembly and the support surface are moveable relative to one another to enable the second part of the sleeve to move into an open configuration.
