ABSTRACT:
A pick and place machine operable to transfer a part from a loading station to a horizontally removed delivery station. Jaws for grasping and releasing the parts are mounted on the first of a pair of interrelated members, said first member being vertically slidable in relationship to the second member and both of said members horizontally slidable with respect to a supporting housing so as to accomplish part movement in an X-Y direction, i.e., an inverted U-shape path. The travel which such first member assumes is controlled by a follower attached thereto and in contact with a cam path defined within the housing and disposed adjacent the members. Motion imparted to the follower by a crank arm mounted for reciprocal motion as by an air cylinder or the like.
