Abstract

A method and apparatus for feeding and orienting parts. The parts are fed in sliding engagement along a guide step and ejected when misoriented. Misoriented parts are either blown off the guide step by an air knife or transversely displaced on the guide step by an ejector that alters their line of travel and causes them to fall off the guide step. All excess and misoriented parts are recirculated for refeeding and orienting.
