摘要： A method and mechanism for visually inspecting both sides of components for a hard disk drive are disclosed. The components are stored in the containment units of a packing tray, with an exchange tray with matching containment units placed above and in contact with the packing tray. The components could be magnetic read/write heads, head gimbal assemblies, or other parts of hard disk drive. The two trays are rotated, using gravity to cause the components to move from the packing containment unit to the exchange containment unit.
