Abstract
The apparatus enables grasping a predetermined number of objects infed in a row and placing the grasped objects into a row arrangement containing a predetermined spacing from one another. There are provided tools containing displaceable object carriers and non-displaceable object carriers. The objects which are present in a predetermined pattern spacing are received by one of the tools and transferred to the object carriers of another one of the tools. By shifting the object carriers the objects are placed in a desired pattern having a predetermined pattern spacing, then transferred to the one tool and further processed by such one tool. The apparatus is particularly suitable, for instance, for the mounting of contact elements in insulating bodies of plug and socket connectors.
