ABSTRACT:
A method of assembling computer hard discs (12) onto a spindle (14) with a robot device (22) with only negligible contact forces to avoid generation of contaminating microparticles by scraping contact, in which a spindle supporting table (24) rests on gas film bearing pads (46) allowing frictionless lateral movement. The table (24) is initially positively positioned by locating devices (56) to fix the location of the spindle (14) in horizontal plane, and a disc (12) moved onto a tapering homing fixture (15) previously positioned over the spindle (14). The table (24) is released for frictionless lateral movements as the disc (12) is advanced onto the spindle (14).
