Abstract
Drive assemblies for seam forming apparatus used to form a seam in one or more limp material segments include a fold assembly and a driver for positioning the segments within guide channels in the fold assembly prior to presentation to a seam joining device. The driver controls the segments to be at associated predetermined positions within the fold assembly. The drive assemblies include actuator means for moving drive wheels of the driver between two positions relative to the guide channels.
