Abstract

Paddle apparatus for an accumulator for receiving and transporting printed circuit panels including a plurality of tip elements and caps are distributed on the tip elements. The caps act as cushion elements to prevent inadvertent damage to the printed circuit panels and for providing sufficient friction to help maintain the circuit panels in place in the accumulator apparatus as the circuit panels are moved.
