FIELD: transportation. SUBSTANCE: invention can be used for developing new small-size surface wiring automatic devices. Proposed method of orientation of different-shape articles at their transportation includes one-by-one delivery of articles to form single channel or multichannel cassette in form of disk or vertical cylinder by preliminarily forming of bulk articles into orientated sequence of one nominal or preset sequence of different nominals with subsequent one-by-one delivery with turning to rib to fit selected channel of cassette where articles are fed from outer contour of cassette into central contour or vice versa, or vertical sequence is formed in channel of vertical cylinder with radial or tangential orientation of articles. Channels are changed using step drive, and extreme articles in channel are put out one by one. EFFECT: enlarged operating capabilities. 25 cl, 28 dwg
