<p>An apparatus (10) automatically assembles a plurality of electrical components stored in a like plurality of component feeders (34, 36, 38, 40, 42, 44, 46, 48, 50) into a printed circuit board (12). Each component feeder includes a component identifying bar code (92) and each component supply station includes a visual indicator (64). An optical bar code reader (22) reads each of the bar codes one at a time. A controller (28) correlates each of the bar codes with a corresponding one of the component supply stations. A detector (66) associated with each component supply station detects the presence of a component feeder in its associated component supply station.</p> |
