The present invention is directed to a system and method which utilize a feedback loop arrangement to control the accurate positioning of components. The system and method may utilize the feedback loop to control a component engaging member operable to retrieve a component. The feedback loop may control the component engaging member by activating a drive subsystem operable to translate the component engaging member. Additionally, the feedback control loop may implemented by utilizing a signal source operable to emit a signal and a signal receiver operable to receive the signal emitted by the signal source. The signal source and signal receiver are fixedly attached to the device. Also, the feedback loop may involve a processor operable to control retrieval of a desired component utilizing at least in part the signal emitted by the signal source and received by the signal receiver.
