The case and carton handling device comprises a base with a drive shaft attached thereto, a case ring assembly to selectively engage the cases, remove them from a feed conveyor belt for inspection and return them to a discharge conveyor belt; and a carton ring assembly to selectively engage the cartons, remove them from the cases for inspection and return them to the cases. The case ring assembly includes a case ring positioner to position the case ring assembly at a first case ring position such that the case ring assembly may engage the cases and a second case ring position wherein the carton ring assembly may engage the cartons.
