Abstract
The can filling station is provided with can removal means for moving full cans away from a filling position. A sliver separator is also mounted on the can removal means to engage against the underside of the coiler guide wheel under a spring biased force. Simultaneously with the movement of the full can, the separator slides over the exit opening of the sliver channel in the guide wheel and thus separates or tears the fiber sliver which is stationary and located in the exit opening.
