An automated packaging line for C- or U-shaped profiles is described. The example packaging line includes a first blade and a second blade that are rotatable around a horizontal axis in a first vertical plane and a third blade and a fourth blade that rotatable about the horizontal axis in a second vertical plane that is parallel to and offset from the first vertical plane. The first blade and the third blade are synchronously rotatable around the horizontal axis and the second blade and the fourth blade are synchronously rotatable about the horizontal axis. The first blade and the third blade are to receive a first profile having a c-shaped cross-section or a u-shaped cross-section and the first blade and the third blade are to rotate a second profile having a c-shaped cross-section or a u-shaped cross-section over the first profile such that the first profile is positioned in a first orientation and the second profile positioned in a second orientation opposite the first orientation to form a duplex disposed in the first and third blades.
