A capacitor removal device and method is disclosed for removing capacitors from a holder strip on which the capacitors are secured by an adhesive strip with a body portion of the capacitor extending above the holder strip. The removal device comprises a conveyor carried by a frame for transporting the holder strip with the capacitors carried thereon along a first path, and an elongated guide member carried adjacent a substantial length of the conveyor for engaging the body portion of the capacitor and guiding the capacitor along a second path. The first and second paths diverge relative to each other causing the capacitors to be separated and removed from the holder strip.
