The present invention is directed to a high-speed container unscrambler. The invention comprises of an apparatus for alignment, orientation of containers and sets of conveyor belts between which the containers are placed. The alignment mechanism has a photo eye that detects a presence of a container and a servomotor that is activated by the photo eye. The servomotor has a three hook arm mounted to it, which serves to lift the containers by their leading end when they are coming with a neck leading position. When containers are coming in with a base leading position, the hook does not engage the containers and the containers are passing by without engagement. The containers are released between the conveyor belts aligned in the same position and move towards an orientation mechanism, which places the containers in an all-standing position. The orientation mechanism comprises of a photo eye, which detects a presence of a container, and a servomotor, that is activated by the photo eye. The servomotor has a pocketed wheel mounted on it, which serves to engage containers and rotate them to all standing position. Once the containers are oriented in all standing position, they are released between the belts and proceed for further processing.
