主权项

1. A handling device for microelectronic assemblies, comprising:
a frame including a first end element, a second end element, a first side element and a second side element; internal rails extending between the first side element and the second side element thereby defining storage channels within the handling device; a floor formed within the storage channels, thereby defining upper storage channels and lower storage channels, wherein the floor is between the upper storage channels and the lower storage channels; upper insert strips releasably attached to the internal rails within the upper storage channels, the upper insert strips including a plurality of pockets for receiving microelectronic assemblies; and lower insert strips releasably attached to the internal rails within the lower storage channels, wherein the lower insert strips present a flat continuous cover to the plurality of pockets on an upper insert strip of a lower adjacent stacked handling device.
