Abstract An apparatus for the movement of articles in a predetermined upright position from a first station to a second station, spaced from the first station, by a foraminous transfer belt. A vacuum plenum has a wall against the back side of the transfer belt with spaced longitudinal slots therein so that maximum vacuum is drawn in the plenum through jet openings in the belt which is sufficient to just lift and support properly oriented articles from the first station and transfer them to the second station. The transfer belt can be run at a higher speed than that with which articles are supplied to the first station to space articles longitudinally along the transfer belt. The second station includes a conveyor with converging side walls for moving the separated containers into single file arrangement over a much shorter longitudinal distance than would otherwise be possible.
