Abstract
An automatic module apparatus for manufacturing a solid state drive (SSD) includes a labeling apparatus, one or more test handler apparatuses and a sorting apparatus. The labeling apparatus is for printing a label on a SSD mounted on a carrier tray. The one or more test handler apparatuses are for transporting the carrier tray on which the labeled SSD is mounted and for testing the labeled SSDs to determine whether the labeled SSDs have any defects. The SSD sorting apparatus is for transporting the carrier tray on which the tested SSDs are mounted and sorting non-defective defective SSDs tested by the test handler apparatuses. The SSD labeling apparatus, the test handler apparatuses, and the SSD sorting apparatus are in-line and automated.
