Summary:A method for rapid loading of casing-bearing sleeves on the stuffing tube of a sausage machine (10) , provides for placing the preloaded sleeves (44) on a feeder mechanism and selectively and sequentially moving the sleeves (44) into registering position with the discharge end (15) of an emulsion stuffing tube (14); sequentially moving the stuffing tube (14) into each of the sleeves (44) and extruding emulsion through the stuffing tube (14) into the casing ( (52) mounted on the sleeve (44) until the sleeve is slidably removed from the tube (14) caused in part by the movement of emulsion entering the casing. The apparatus has a fixture suitably movably mounted on the machine with a plurality of preloaded sleeves (44) thereon for sequential movement for selective alignment of the sleeves with the stuffing tube (14)for sequential filling of the casings with emulsion.
