Abstract
An azimuth angle compensation device adapted for use with an assembler device for inserting an object into a workpiece, whereby the assembler device establishes a centerline corresponding substantially to an insertion axis of the object to be inserted into the workpiece. The azimuth compensation device includes: (1) a first member; (2) a second member; and (3) structure connecting the first and second members for causing the second member and the object to rotate about the centerline through at least one angle and in at least one direction when the object is brought into contact with the workpiece by the assembler device.
