Abstract
A cap seal fitting machine for a container, wherein a cap seal of a film piece is punched from a film sheet by a punching means and is held onto one of molds which are radially arranged in the periphery of a rotary disc plate which is intermittently turned around its axis, wherein the cap seal held on the mold is molded into a desired shape by a molding means, and wherein the cap seal molded is transferred from the mold to the top of the container for fitting thereon by a transfer means. The punching means, the molding means, and the transfer means are operated while the rotary disc plate is stopped.
