ABSTRACT:
A planar workpiece such as a printed circuit board or a ceramic substrate for an integrated circuit is aligned by apparatus including three pivotal cams that initially fit relatively loosely in three apertures in the workpiece. As the cams are rotated, they contact the sides of the apertures and thereby urge the workpiece into a centered and aligned position.
