<p>To enable a high-speed machine to process (for instance interconnect and reel) only acceptable, predeterminedly ordered electronic components after appropriate test, velocity changing mechanism actuatable by a continuously operable conveyor of the machine is provided to shift components to and from a testing unit and relative to their respective successive locations along the conveyor. Only failure of a component to qualify at the test unit automatically stops the conveyor, and that enables an operator to take corrective action by satisfactory completion of a test on a replacement component which then is preferably manually located in its proper sequence on the conveyor prior to re-starting of the machine. Accordingly, except for the usually uncommon short interval when an attendant may need to make substitution for an unsatisfactory component which has been detected, the invention enables rapid processing of assuredly reliable components and their intended sequence is verified.</p> |
