ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for feeding and orienting parts such as studs to production machines such as threaders for work on the parts, comprises an indexing dial having a plurality of radially aligned pockets for receiving the parts. A plurality of feed stations adjacent the indexing dial eject parts into the dial pockets in a desired sequence such that successive parts are ejected from different feed stations into a succession of dial pockets. Each pocket receives but one part during a single rotation of the dial, and each pocket is provided with means for orienting the part into a desired position for ejection onto a track for transporting the part to the production machine.
