PURPOSE: To reduce the contact resistance, and to prevent the hooking of a product, the deformation by the holding and the generation of a defective prod uct by aligning a plurality of strip-shaped precise pressed products at an inlet of an aligning machine to be collected in one unit, and consisting the surface of a movable part at the inlet part of the aligning machine to be loaded on a belt conveyor of a flat and smooth cushion material.

CONSTITUTION: A cushion of plastics sponge on the surface of which a flat and smooth plastics sheet is attached is affixed to a movable part 1 of an inlet part 6 of an aligning machine and a part (a) of a frame in contact with a pressed product 3 indicated by the hatching. The plastics sheet to be used for this cushion may include the hard polyethylene sheet, the polypropylene sheet, the cellophane, the Teflon (R) sheet, etc., which is preferably one not to increase the deformation resistance of the cushion. The cushion is preferably the hard polyurethane sponge.
