<p>An apparatus and process for transporting and orienting materials which have dissimilar ends, like capsules, to and in a predetermined orientation and position. The apparatus includes two rotatable drums (16, 18) in tangential arrangement. Each drum includes a plurality of peripherally spaced pockets (40, 42) sized and shaped to receive and carry individual capsules (20). Each drum is provided with an air jet (62, 62') and guide (58, 58') which orients certain preselected capsules (20) from a radial to a longitudinal position with a selected end trailing. The capsules (20) are then delivered to a conveyor (22) for further processing, like printing, such as spin printing.</p> |
