Abstract
The present disclosure relates to an apparatus and method for applying sealing strips in an automated fashion to the edges of an article carrier support rail. The apparatus uses a vacuum force to hold at least one seal strip in a channel of a first nest assembly. The first nest assembly is rotationally supported and may be into a position adjacent to a second nest assembly. The second nest assembly is configured to hold an external component, for example an article carrier support rail, in an orientation so that a predetermined area thereof can receive the seal strip. The first nest assembly applies the seal strip to the predetermined area of the external component in a highly precise, repeatable and rapid fashion.
