The apparatus includes a horizontal rotating plate with three equally spaced arms and a lug assembly attached to an end of each arm. The plate rotates at a repeating velocity pattern enabling a lug assembly to be inserted between articles from the moving stream and a group of selected articles to be separated by a predetermined acceleration of the lug assembly.
