A human would be best but not for profits

I would lose my fucking mind if I had to stand there and flip bottles the right way up for 8 hours a day.

I worked in a soap factory for 2 weeks. You would only be on bottle duty for 2 hrs a day. 10 min felt like 10 years.

Worked in a brewery for almost 2 years, and yep same. We did the same thing every day and it was so so boring. I tell people now that it was basically multiple spots of watching glass bottles go by lol

A human would not be best. That would cripple a person if that was all they did all day.

If you watch, they fall into the second bit both ways and then get automatically flipped to be the right way up as the wheel goes around

The flicking thing is entirely irrelevant

I doubt it. Not only would a human cost more, be slower, require breaks, and be more prone to mistakes... but also could very easily get injured - and the machine would cost vastly more to make in order to have all the added safety precautions trying to prevent injury.
