Abstract
The invention relates to a method and a device for the positioning of a displaceable component in an examining system, particularly a measuring or an analytic system wherein, during the process, the displaceable component is displaced with the support of an actuating element coupled to the displaceable component from a home position into an end position, wherein the actuating element is moved by means of a drive force and the displaceable component is impacted with a fixation force fixating the displaceable component in the end position by way of a fixation component connected to the displaceable component, where the fixation component is submerged at least partially in a reservoir of a medium and is fixated in the medium by means of the transformation of the medium from a liquid state into a solidified state, wherein the medium is transformed from the liquid state into the solidified state by means of the impact-application with a manipulating variable.
