Pref., the four box arrangement has a swell in each box, along with the swell control unit. The slay has the raceboard with a swell unit actuating an overhead pressure plate, while a side motion controls and decelerates the shuttle before reaching the selected box. The supplementary swells are the same length as those in the boxes.
