Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	2110064 9320988 PCTABS00027 A workpiece support assembly for a microrobotic apparatus for aligning three workpieces and welding them into an assembled package, includes a lower support assembly (80) having a ball and socket joint (100) with a polymer ball seat cast around the ball. The ball has a radial bore containing a lower collet axially movable in the bore to grip one of the workpieces. The other two workpieces are held in telescoping arrangement, respectively in inner and outer (160) collects of an upper support assembly (140), the collets being disposed coaxially one within the other and respectively having camming housing for opening and closing the collets. The outer collet housing (151) supports the entire upper support assembly (140) and is axially driven so that when the outer collet bottoms on the outer workpiece the continued movement of the outer housing (151) closes the collet to grip the workpiece. The inner collet is closed over the inner workpiece by a pneumatic piston.
