Abstract
A disk (110) carries containers (such as 120) each containing a stack of cards capable of being extracted one-by-one via an orifice (126) when a wheel (151) is moved to an extraction position (151A). A first conveyor (140A) then conveys the extracted card to a programming unit (1) which is capable of being moved to a position enabling a card to be inserted therein without friction, and thereafter lowers a connector (6) onto the card. After the card has been validated and inspected, it is conveyed to a user along the first conveyor (140A) and then along a second conveyor (140B) terminating at a delivery slot (105). An invalid card may be directly rejected into a reject box (180) placed beneath the programming unit (1).
