An automatic distribution machine includes a plurality of bin modules, each bin module being adapted to dispense packages onto a conveyor belt or the like. The bin modules are removable and interchangeable, thereby facilitating replacement if one fails. A sorting operation performed by the machine is controlled by a computer, which communicates with the bin modules through a common data bus. Expansion of the sorting operation can be achieved by extending the data bus to additional bin modules.

A sample strip is divided into a plurality of individual pieces arranged seriatim and connected in end-to-end fashion. The individual pieces are separated from each other as the strip is incrementally fed through a dispensing tip of a cartridge which controls the dispensing operation to insure that the samples are dispensed one at a time in a hygienic manner. The cartridge can be mounted in a display unit along with a plurality of similar cartridges.
