Impressive. Several years ago I designed an industrial machine that is used untangle and sort nails, screws, etc for feeding robots in automatic product lines.

Impressive.
Several years ago I designed an industrial machine that is used untangle and sort nails, screws, etc for feeding robots in automatic product lines. Main elements were vibration beds (using eccentric), slopes with geometry to sort out and pneumatic cylinders - to untangle items in high speed.

This ones a nice Lego sorter, too: http://hackaday.com/2011/04/20/amazing-quad-pick-and-place-system-tirelessly-sorts-your-legos/ http://hackaday.com/2011/04/20/amazing-quad-pick-and-place-s...
