Abstract

Apparatus for treating electronic components comprises a frame, a lower track mounted on the frame for supporting the components, and an upper track mounted on the frame in a normal operating position above and in spaced-apart parallel relationship to the lower track. The lower and upper tracks define therebetween a path along which the components can pass for treatment. Pusher fingers are provided each having a portion which extends substantially horizontally in such a manner as to be insertable between the tracks and engageable with individual ones of the components. A drive is mounted on the frame for propelling the fingers. The components are held captive between the lower and upper tracks, and the fingers engage individual ones of the components and propel them along the path.
