ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for aligning a surface of a pyramidal-shaped workpiece (such as a stylus) with respect to a positioning ring attached to a holder supporting the workpiece. One surface of the workpiece (electrode of the stylus) is exposed to an incident light beam of large diameter so that only a portion of the incident beam is reflected from the surface onto a calibrated screen. A mirror reflects the remaining portion of the light beam back to the other two stylus surfaces to provide a pair of reflected beams onto the same screen. The workpiece is rotated to position the three reflections on the calibrated screen for comparison to a standard.
