Modular belt carrier for electronic components

摘要: Replaceable component carriers (40) are adapted to be freely floating in belt apertures (74) and have alignment features (160), such as conical holes (170), mated (162), tapered pins (184), processing stations temporarily hold a carrier its components (10), resistors, fixed position during various processes, termination. The include rigid substructure (50) more elastic coating (60) provide receiving (46) that can particular (10). replaced without removing the (72), whenever differently shaped desired or become too worn reliably handle thereby reducing damage risk, replacement cost, operational down time of (72).
