Claim Text:
1. A method of attaching a microactuator to a flexure, the method comprising: depositing a mass of structural adhesive on a first surface of the flexure, the mass of structural adhesive applied in a wet state; mounting the microactuator over the flexure such that the structural adhesive, while in the wet state, is located between and in contact with each of the first surface of the flexure and a surface of the microactuator; partially curing the mass of structural adhesive through a first application of curing energy to the mass of structural adhesive while in the wet state; depositing a mass of conductive adhesive on the flexure, the mass of conductive adhesive deposited so as to contact each of a second surface of the flexure, a first terminal of the microactuator, and the mass of structural adhesive while in the partially cured state; and fully curing the mass of structural adhesive and the conductive adhesive through a second application of curing energy.
