Abstract: Arrangement (1) for processing electronic components, including a plurality of processing stations (3) for processing electronic component, at least some processing stations including an electrical actuator (8); a conveyor (2), such as a turret, for transporting components from one processing station to the next; and a central processing unit (5) for commanding the processing stations. At least some processing stations (3) include a local processing unit (7) for generating command signals (74) for the electric actuators (8). The central processing unit (5) is connected to the local processing units (7) over an electronic bus (6). Digital command instructions (75) are transferred on the electronic bus (6) between the central processing unit (5) and the local processing units (7).

Abstract: A seismic prospecting method comprising the use of at least two vehicles for moving an acoustic wave emission assembly and a reception assembly such as a seismic streamer. The method consists in performing successive cycles of emission of acoustic waves, of reception and of recording of the acoustic waves coming from reflecting interfaces of the subsoil and combining the recording so as to provide multiple coverage. The vehicles follow paths such that the angle formed by the respective advancing directions remains greater than or equal to 90.degree. in absolute value.
