<p>A production line system wherein a workpiece is carried along a first line, and comprising automatic equipment for effecting an operation on the workpiece. A workpiece (say, a car 11) is pivotally mounted on a main production line (10) so that as it reaches the appropriate work section (say, a spray painting booth) it can be turned or swung out of line towards automatic equipment (say, a spray gun 13) mounted on a second line (12) adjacent and parallel to the first, thus giving to the equipment relatively unrestricted access to the workpiece as the two move along synchronised with each other until the operation being effected is complete.</p> |
