The absolute evaluation mode receives the test results that are equal to or higher than the set value for the number of times and accumulates the failure determination rate, yield, The corresponding blade of which the predetermined reference yield value is not set is set to be off so that the corresponding blade set off when the material is put into the shuttle controls not to load the material.
In the continuous evaluation mode, the test result is received, and when the number of defective judgments is higher than a set value as a result of cumulative calculation of the defective determination rate, yield, and defective determination count for each blade, the corresponding blade is set to off, So as not to load the material.
Here, in controlling the corresponding blade that is set to be off so as not to load the material, for example, the air pressure supplied to the pneumatic cylinder of the blade in which the abnormality occurs may be blocked to be turned off.
For reference, the blade sucks the semiconductor element through the air pressure supplied to the pneumatic cylinder, sends out the compressed air, places it down on the socket to be tested, and presses it through the pressurizing means, so a detailed description thereof will be omitted.

Next, as a result of the relative evaluation in the step S31, the blade of which the predetermined reference value is not set is turned off (S32).
In the absolute evaluation, the failure determination rate, the yield, and the number of failure determination times for each blade are cumulatively calculated for each blade after the test is performed for the number of times set value or more (S33).
Next, as a result of the absolute evaluation in step S33, the corresponding blade with a predetermined reference yield value is turned off (S34).
In the continuous evaluation, the defective determination rate, the yield, and the defective determination number are cumulatively calculated for each blade, and the defective determination number is counted (S35).
Next, if it is determined in step S50 that the number of defects is higher than the preset defective determination number, the corresponding blade is turned off (S36).
