Sliced products are deposited in a shipping tray 10 by depositing a first row 71 of the sliced products in the center portion of the tray, moving the first row across the bottom of the tray to a first side wall, depositing a second row 72 of sliced products in the center portion of the tray, then moving the second row of sliced products to the opposite side wall, and depositing a third row 73 of the sliced products in the center portion of the tray. The lateral movement of the first and second rows of sliced products avoids obstruction by the perimeter rim of the tray and the endmost slices of the products tend to follow the curvature of the corners 17-20 of the shipping tray as they are moved toward the side walls of the shipping tray.
A process of packing three rows of horizontally stacked products in adjacent, parallel rows in a rectangular shipping tray having first and second opposed parallel sidewalls on opposed sides of a center portion of the shipping tray and opposed parallel end walls intersecting the side walls, with rounded corners at the intersections of the sidewalls with the end walls, comprising:
A process of packing multiple rows of products in adjacent parallel rows in a rectangular shipping tray having first and second opposed sidewalls on opposed sides of a center portion of the shipping tray and opposed end walls, with non-right angle corners extending inwardly at the intersections of the sidewalls with the end walls, comprising:
A process of placing multiple rows of horizontally stacked sliced products in a shipping tray that includes a bottom wall and first and second opposed sidewalls comprising:
Apparatus for placing rows of horizontally stacked sliced products in a shipping tray that includes a bottom wall and first and second opposed sidewalls, said apparatus comprising:
Apparatus for packing multiple rows of horizontally stacked products in a shipping tray, the shipping tray including a bottom wall and upwardly extending first and second side walls, comprising
