LIFO Vertical Buffer

The Prey vertical buffer allows for the storing of PCBs in LIFO mode. It enables a buffer of PCBs to allow the manufacturing line before the buffer to continue running whenever there is a delay further down the line. The PCBs will continue to be held in place until the next machine is ready for a PCB. This prevents downtime for any previous machine and allows the line to continue as normal while logging the amount of time each PCB is held within the LIFO Buffer.
