Abstract
A first nest structure and a second nest structure are brought into alignment. When the alignment of the first nest structure and second nest structure is obtained, the operation of at least one vacuum pump is controlled such that a bearing element is released from the first nest structure and secured in the second nest structure. Movement of the bearing element from the first nest structure to the second nest structure occurs without slippage resulting in preservation of a common frame of reference used when the bearing element is in the first nest structure and the second nest structure.
