Abstract
Templates to arrange and/or align components for batch placement on a substrate are described. A batch placement template can include a number of detents physically arranged relative to each other corresponding to a physical arrangement of components to be placed on a substrate. The detents can be sized to allow components to be manipulated into the detents and subsequently picked and placed on the substrate in a batch process.
Claims25
A system to place a plurality of components on a substrate in a batch, comprising:
- a batch placement template comprising a surface and a plurality of detents in the surface;
- a component dispenser to dispense a plurality of components onto the surface;
- and
- a component manipulator to manipulate the plurality of components into the plurality of detents.

An apparatus comprising:
- a prism having an upper surface;
- a plurality of detents in the upper surface, each of the plurality of detents comprising an area equal to or larger than an area of a component to be manipulated into the detents, wherein each of the plurality detents are arranged, relative to each other, on the upper surface based on a targeted position of a plurality of components, relative to each other, to be placed on a substrate.
A method to place components on a substrate, the method comprising:
- dispensing a plurality of components onto a surface of a batch placement template, the batch placement template comprising the surface and a plurality of detents in the surface, each of the plurality of detents having an area equal to or greater than an area of each of the plurality of components;
- manipulating the plurality of component into the plurality of detents;
- and
- picking the plurality of components from the detents in a batch process.
