The present invention is an apparatus and method for inverting or turning-over articles in a product stream as they are transported by a vibratory conveyor. The articles are transported along a vibratory surface in a vibratory manner to a curved surface that is bounded by a tapered guide wall. The objects are transported along the curved surface in a vibratory manner and partially rolled so that, as they release or transfer from the curved surface to a vibratory surface, they turn-over and become inverted. The invention is shown and discussed in the context of an advantageous seasoning application.
