Abstract

The invention relates to a device and a method for picking up individual objects or particles and placing them in containers or cavities filled with liquid. The invention allows in particular a simple handling of the objects and thus considerably reduces the operation costs of such a plant (FIG. 2). In this method and device, an adhesive is applied to an end portion of a transport structure. An object to be transported is held by the adhesive until it is delivered to the desired location.
