Abstract
A flexible workpiece transporter is provided with a guide roller adapted to move laterally with the flexible workpiece transporter to thereby inhibit chafing of the guide roller as a result of the lateral movement of the transporter relative to the guide roller. Chafing of the guide roller can be further inhibited by providing the guide roller with ends which are tapered so as to contact a relatively smooth upper surface of the transporter rather than a pair of relatively sharp longitudinal edges thereof.
