Abstract: Apparatus for conveying flat, preferably plate-shaped members that have previously been processed on one or both surfaces through a processing unit, for example, conveying printed electrical circuit boards through a circulating air drying or auxiliary finishing oven, includes a rotor having more than one receptor device for accepting the members individually, which receptor devices are situated on the periphery of a hub-shaped carrier. The rotor is driven to rotate in a stepwise fashion corresponding to the arrangement of the receptor devices. Elements for loading and unloading the members, that function within the periphery of the rotor are also provided.
