Abstract: A transportation method of individual objects and a means for sorting each object into a receiver is disclosed. In accordance with the method, each object is individually picked from a conveyor and delivered to a selected collecting cassette, the objects being centered on the conveyor before being transferred to a pick-up device. The individual objects are delivered to the cassette with the pick-up device which turns 90 degrees and which tilts toward the selected cassette to deliver the object.The apparatus for handling of the individual objects includes a conveyor, a pick-up device mounted to a conveyor belt intended to pick-up and move the individual objects, and a device for centering each object before transference to the pick-up device. The pick-up device is turnable by 90 degrees in each direction, and is tiltable in the direction of the object.
