Claim:
1. A product conveyer system which moves patties, meatballs, or other shaped meat products from a forming machine or other processing machine comprising: an upper conveyor that drives a belt longitudinally using a drive unit while said upper conveyor reciprocates laterally; a lower conveyor; a transverse drive which moves said upper conveyer at a right angle to direction of travel; said upper conveyor moving at a higher longitudinal speed than said lower conveyor; said upper conveyer forms said meat products into spherical shapes, wherein said upper conveyer is smaller laterally than said lower conveyer and said upper conveyer reciprocates laterally which force is dampened by a counter weight system, thereby imparting a multi-direction motion on said respective meat product which creates a spherical shape while dispersing said respective meat product laterally on said lower conveyer.
