ABSTRACT:
In a machine having automatic article transport individual identical articles are conveyed along a conveyor path (21) past various processing stations. A clock (12) is associated with the conveyor path. Furthermore, a characteristic detection apparatus (13) is provided which delivers information corresponding to the characteristics of the articles (16) which are moving past to a characteristic shift register (11), which is pulsed by the clock (1). An article sorting apparatus (14) is arranged spaced from the characteristic detection apparatus and is controlled by the associated storage (11') of the characteristic shift register. A further presence shift register (15) is arranged parallel to the characteristic shift register (11) and the information contained in the presence shift register (15) is compared with the output of a presence detection apparatus (17) and can be used to stop the machine in the event that a deviation is detected (FIG. 1).
