Abstract

A pick and place system is provided with an actuator is responsive to the connection to an air power source to move to a pick-up position. The actuator moves a fork-type link which in turn moves a probe to compliantly move to pick up a micro device upon connection to the air power source. A replaceable precisor precisely aligns the micro device relative to the probe and a floating seal disposed around the probe and resting on the replaceable precisor seals the probe to the replaceable precisor. A system control, connectable to the electrical power source, is connected to the pneumatic and supply valves for selectively, electrically actuating the pneumatic and supply valves.
