Popis:	Two sizes of H apple cultivars were placed on a bicone conveyor used in commercial sorting machines and on an experimental conveyor. In less than 18 seconds, apples were oriented into one of two modes, either parallel (desired) or nonparallel (undesired) to the stem/calyx axis. The commercial conveyor gave desired orientation to 94% of 88 Washington State Red Delicious apples but to only 4% of 772 apples from eastern cultivars. The experimental conveyor gave desired orientation to 83.4% of the apples from cultivars normally produced in the eastern United States but to only
