Abstract
A conveyor means for transporting precision parts is divided into a plurality of block units and compressed air is supplied selectively to each block unit where a transporting pallet is present so as to reduce consumption of compressed air to the minimum. Also, it ensures high carrying efficiency because of its slow starting and slow stopping without reducing the speed during running.
