Abstract: A method and apparatus for flipping or rotating a component 180 degrees. The apparatus includes a rotatable plate having a component opening where the component may pass through and a top and a bottom shutter where when the plate is rotated in a first direction, the top shutter closes and the bottom shutter opens and when the plate is rotated in a second, opposite direction, the bottom shutter closes and the top shutter opens. The top shutter and the bottom shutter may be coupled to a proximal and distal cam following bearing where the proximal and distal cam following bearings are located within a proximal and distal cam slot of a cam barrel.
