    Abstract: A manufacturing system applicable to seam welded metal containers for the fastening of attachments thereto in a predetermined relationship to the seam. The container is supported upon suitable means for rotating same about its longitudinal axis and a mechanically actuated feeler switch is arranged thereagainst for responding to the increased thickness of material in the location of the seam and delivering a signal. Said signal initiates a timer control which stops the rotation of the container at a predetermined angular spacing from the seam and initiates the attaching operation which latter may occur in the same or at a subsequent station.
