Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
An automatic transport system comprising a main conveyor for transporting containers or pallets which are provided with memory elements for identification and on which workpieces are stacked to receive an assembling or machining operation. A plurality of sub-conveyers are connected to the main conveyer for effecting the assembling or machining operations on the workpieces. The sub-conveyers are intermittently driven in succession to completely synchronize the working operations, while the main conveyer is periodically and freely driven independently of the sub-conveyers under the control of a computer. Thereby conventional accumulation or jamming of pallets caused by defects in the automatic assembling or machining devices or by defectively processed workpieces can be completely eliminated.
