ABSTRACT:
A vacuum turret apparatus for moving objects from a first location to a second location is disclosed. The turret is specifically designed to move individual plate-like objects from a stack of such objects located at the first location to the second location. Flexible bellows in combination with vacuum are used to lift, hold, and move the objects. An air knife ejecting a stream of high pressure air towards the selected object helps separate that object from the rest of the stack.
