In one embodiment of the present invention, the loader portion includes a support plate for supporting a magazine for receiving the strip, a rotary table for rotating the support plate and for moving the strip in the first direction, And a guide rail for guiding the converted strip in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction.
According to the embodiments of the present invention as described above, the first unit picker is provided so as to reverse the semiconductor packages, so that a separate inversion process for reversing the semiconductor package And a separate reverse unit for implementing this can be omitted, thereby simplifying the process and simplifying the mechanism. In addition, by air blowing toward the semiconductor package in a state where the drying section is tilted, water can be more effectively removed by gravity on the semiconductor package. Furthermore, the semiconductor package singulation apparatus can load the magazine to the loader section from the front side more easily. Further, since the guide rails are disposed in the loader portion, the maintenance of the guide rails can be made easier.
