ABSTRACT:
Products advancing en masse, typically candy or chocolates, are aligned by a device comprising a drum, and inside the drum, a rotating disc by which the products are taken up from an infeed belt, aligned and oriented exploiting centrifugal force and directed onto a conveyor belt extending toward a wrapping machine; the top surface of the rotating disc incorporates an upwardly directed portion of concave profile serving to establish a path along which the effects of centrifugal force on the advancing products are suitably counteracted and controlled.
