ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for fabricating long full width scanning arrays for reading or writing images. For this purpose, smaller scanning arrays are assembled in abutting end-to-end relationship, each of the smaller arrays being provided with a pair of V-shaped locating grooves in the face thereof. An aligning tool having predisposed pin-like projections insertable into the locating grooves on the smaller scanning arrays upon assembly of the smaller arrays with the aligning tool is used to mate a series of the smaller arrays in end-to-end abutting relationship, there being discretely located vacuum ports in the aligning tool to draw the smaller arrays into tight face-to-face contact with the tool. A suitable base is then affixed to the aligned arrays and the aligning tool withdrawn.
