Abstract: An installation for handling parts between a container in which they are placed in layers and piles and a table which cooperates with a chute joining the installation to a service machine. The installation comprises a table mobile horizontally relative to the frame, structure for displacing in a controlled manner the table so that its free end protrudes with respect to the frame free end, and at least one container formed of at least one bottom and three fixed vertical side walls. The face of the container without a vertical wall has a width slightly greater than the width of the table free end. An elevator is placed opposite the frame in the direction of mobility of the table and is adapted to move vertically in a controlled manner. A container with its face without a vertical wall is in register with the table so that the end of said table can be introduced in the container.
