ABSTRACT:
In a lead frame carrying method and apparatus, first and second press units are provided on sides of a pair of carrier rails. When carrying a lead frame along the carrier rails, a side edge portion of the lead frame is clamped by being pressed from a surface and a back face of the lead frame almost perpendicularly thereto by the first and second press units. In the lead frame, the clamped side edge portion is floated by a predetermined height above one of the carrier rails during carrying. Accordingly, the lead frame can surely be clamped and carried. In addition, when carrying the lead frame along the carrier rails, the lead frame is damaged with difficulty by the carrier rails.
