Abstract

See full text

The method includes a preprocessing transfer step which places an unprocessed rod-like body in a receiving position; a post-processing transfer step which pushes a processed rod-like body with the unprocessed rod-like body, and thus transfers the processed rod-like body to a rail portion; a rail portion transfer step which pushes the processed rod-like body with the unprocessed rod-like body, and thus transfers the processed rod-like body while being guided by the rail portion; a withdrawing step which withdraws the processed rod-like body from the rail portion using a withdrawing unit; a detection step which detects that the processed rod-like body is transferred from the rail portion to the withdrawing unit; and a discharge step which discharges the processed rod-like body from the withdrawing unit in a direction perpendicular to an axis of the processed rod-like body.
