Abstract
A test apparatus includes a test site, a buffer carrying device, a transport carrying device, a handling mechanism and a dry air flow guide mechanism. The test site performs a test procedure on the objects. The buffer carrying device is disposed close to a side of the test site, holds the objects and performs a temperature conditioning process. The transport carrying device is disposed close to another side of the test site, moves back and forth along a transporting direction, transports the objects into and out of the test site, and heats up the objects. The handling mechanism carries the objects among the buffer carrying device, the test site and the transport carrying device. The dry air flow guide mechanism guides a dry air to surround the test site, the buffer carrying device, the transport carrying device and the handling mechanism and generates a dry environment to prevent dew condensation.
