Method of discharging objects from holders transporting the objects at a first velocity from a first station where the holders successively take up the objects to a second station at which the objects are to be placed, wherein as the objects approach the second station, they are given a second velocity having a direction the angle of which relative to the first velocity gradually increases within a predetermined angular range thereby to decrease the first velocity, and when the first velocity has been substantially offset by the second velocity, the objects are successively discharged from the holders so as to be placed at the second station. A holder suitable for use in the method is also provided.
