    Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for longitudinal scoring of roll-formed containers. In one embodiment, an example system may include a first scoring device having a first rolling die, a first arm coupled to the first rolling die, a second rolling die, a second arm coupled to the second rolling die, and a first support member configured to support the first arm and the second arm. The first arm and the second arm may be configured to: (i) slide along the first support member, such that a distance between the first rolling die and the second rolling die is adjusted, and (ii) rotate about the first support member from a first position to a second position, such that the first rolling die and the second rolling die move from the first position to the second position. The first scoring device may score ends of the packaging material.

    Abstract: A machine for packaging articles with a conveyor designed to feed a preformed carton in a feed direction. The machine comprises conveyor belt for placing an article to be packaged on the carton and mobile article holding device, which hold the article during placement, limiting the speed of the article to that of the carton. The placement device comprise a conveyor belt for placement with at least one curved section, designed to convey the article along a curvilinear route, and an alignment station designed to place the article on the placement conveyor belt in a position that ensures the article is placed from the placement conveyor belt onto the carton in a suitable position. The alignment device comprises a mobile undercarriage which moves transversely to the article feed direction and a conveyor belt on top of the undercarriage, which is designed to feed the article in the article feed direction.
