Meanwhile, some products with burrs can be transported by the conveying line, but products without burrs cannot be transported as they are, and loading operations must be performed using carriers or by manually placing the jig directly. Therefore, the supply module tends to be diversified. Traditional test equipment has difficulty in achieving rapid changeover in terms of supply modules, jig modules, and production methods (single-item production, mixed-flow production, multi-process production), and is unable to meet the rapid production of different products. As a result, a series of problems are caused, such as the problem that the production efficiency is greatly reduced and costs continue to increase due to the time required for product changeover, the problem that the product quality becomes unstable and customer satisfaction decreases, the problem that the competitiveness of companies in the market decreases and profit margins are squeezed, the problem that the production process becomes complicated and the problem that the error rate increases.
