Abstract: The present kiln loader transfer mechanism has first and second parallel rows of pickup spindles for respectively picking up ware pieces and ware support discs arranged in parallel rows extending lengthwise of an inlet conveyor. The transfer mechanism is turned horizontally to deposit the ware pieces and ware support discs in rows on a kiln conveyor at 60* to the latter. While being turned, the transfer mechanism reduces the spacing between the articles in each row and reduces the spacing between the two rows by a predetermined adjustable amount which insures that the discs will be aligned with the ware pieces lengthwise of the kiln conveyor.
