Abstract
Medicaments on a first pallet are transferred onto a second pallet, thereby reorienting the medicaments. The first pallet is received on a first lift plate and the second pallet is received on a second lift plate in vertical opposition to the first lift plate. A lift mechanism urges the first and second lift plates towards one another and the first and second lift plates are inverted so that the medicaments are transferred from said first pallet to said second pallet.
