Abstract
A method of transporting a can end of the type which has a circumferential end curl portion and an interior shoulder, so that an upper edge of a prefabricated can body may be fitted between the end curl portion and interior shoulder to form a sealed can, includes steps of placing the can end on a movable support surface in such a manner that only the circumferential end curl portion of the can end is contacted by the movable support surface; and moving the movable support surface with the can end so supported thereon, whereby the interior shoulder of the can end will not be interfered with by the movable support surface during transport. An indexing belt for performing the method is also disclosed. The method and belt permit a can end which has sealant or adhesive on its interior shoulder to be transported without adhering to the transport mechanism.
