Zusammenfassung:A method for varying dimensions of a substrate supported by a chuck, said substrate having an edge facing bodies of an actuator assembly, each of said bodies being coupled to a lever arm, said bodies defining an area there between, said method comprising: positioning the substrate within said area defined by said bodies, applying compressive forces to said substrate with said actuator assembly, imparting an angular movement to the lever arm about a pivot axis, the lever arm undergoing rotational movement causing body to undergo translational movement toward the substrate in a direction extending transversely to pivot axis.
