2. when a probe is manually inserted into the probe hole of the lower cover plate of the probe card by a person or a manipulator, the first tightening knob is loosened, the first moving table is moved leftwards and rightwards slightly, and the probe is driven to enter the probe hole of the lower cover plate of the probe card;
3. loosening the second mobile station to screw down the knob, and moving the second mobile station back and forth slightly to drive the probe to enter the probe hole of the lower cover plate of the probe card;
4. loosening the third tightening knob, and slightly moving the third mobile station up and down to drive the probes to enter the probe holes of the lower cover plate of the probe card;
5. loosening the first inclined tightening knob, moving the first inclined table at a left and right micro inclined angle, and driving the probe to enter the probe hole of the lower cover plate of the probe card;
6. loosening the second inclined tightening knob, moving the second inclined table at a front and back micro inclined angle, and driving the probe to enter the probe hole of the lower cover plate of the probe card;
7. loosening the third inclined tightening knob, and moving the third inclined table by a left-right micro rotation angle to drive the probe to enter the probe hole of the lower cover plate of the probe card;
8. reciprocating in the above way, and inserting the rest vertical MEMS bent probes;
9. the rest inserted probes cannot slide out of the lower cover plate of the probe card because the probe tips have allowance;
the fifth step: fixed probe card
1. After the probe is inserted, the upper cover plate and the lower cover plate need to be closed and fixed by using screws;
2. the first mobile station moves to the working position;
3. the second mobile station moves to the working position;
4. the first tilting table is moved to a working position;
5. the second tilting table is moved to the working position;
6. the third tilting table moves to the working position;
7. loosening the third movable locking knob, and moving the third movable table to slowly descend to enable the upper cover plate of the probe card to be contacted with the lower cover plate of the probe card;
8. screws for connecting the upper cover plate of the probe card and the lower cover plate of the probe card are screwed through the screw avoiding holes of the upper fixing plate;
9. closing the vacuum gas circuit of the upper fixed plate;
10. closing the vacuum gas circuit of the lower fixing plate;
the seventh step: taking out probe card
1. Slowly moving the third mobile station to rise to a certain height, and keeping the bottom surface of the upper fixing plate away from the upper cover plate of the probe card;
2. and taking out the probe card.
