A part sorting and aligning apparatus for picks parts out of a hopper, aligns the parts and conveys them to another location. The apparatus includes a tilted rotary wheel next to the hopper. Multiple arrays of hooks or pickup members are mounted for rotation on the wheel. The bottom of the hopper has a sliding plate which has slots through which the hooks travel as the hooks move upwardly into and through the hopper. Each pickup member has a weight bar which hangs from the pickup member. As the wheel rotates, the hooks engage and pick up parts as the hooks move upwardly through the hopper. The weight bar maintains a desired orientation of the hooks and the parts as the wheel rotates. Pair of rails pick the parts off of the hooks, so that the parts can be transferred to another location.
