Claim 12:
13. The apparatus of claim 12, wherein the third station comprises a panel engagement mechanism, the panel engagement mechanism comprising:
a vacuum plate configured to selectively engage the central segment of the second liner panel at the pickup position; and
at least one motion actuator configured to convey the vacuum plate from the pickup position to a position proximate the frame of the folding assembly;
wherein as the panel engagement mechanism conveys the central segment of the second liner panel from the pickup position to the position proximate the frame of the panel folding assembly, the first folding projection directs a first end segment to fold towards the central segment to form an acute angle between the first end segment and the central segment, and the second folding projection directs a second end segment to fold towards the central segment to form an acute angle between the second end segment and the central segment.
