The process makes use of a semi-automated miniature robot. The initial tests that led to the full process chain are described, and the full process chain presented. The presented process chain successfully produced four assembled probes. Future work is suggested to augment the presented process chain leading to further automation. %G English %Z TC 5 %Z WG 5.5 %2 https://inria.hal.science/hal-01363874/document %2 https://inria.hal.science/hal-01363874/file/978-3-642-28163-1_2_Chapter.pdf %L hal-01363874 %U https://inria.hal.science/hal-01363874 %~ IFIP %~ IFIP-AICT %~ IFIP-TC %~ IFIP-TC5 %~ IFIP-WG %~ IFIP-WG5-5 %~ IFIP-IPAS %~ IFIP-AICT-371
