An apparatus for positioning micro-devices on a substrate includes one or more supports to hold a donor substrate and a destination substrate, an adhesive dispenser to deliver adhesive on micro-devices on the donor substrate, a transfer device including a transfer surface to transfer the micro-devices from the donor substrate to the destination substrate, and a controller. The controller is configured to operate the adhesive dispenser to selectively dispense the adhesive onto selected micro-devices on the donor substrate based on a desired spacing of the selected micro-devices on the destination substrate. The controller is configured to operate the transfer device such that the transfer surface engages the adhesive on the donor substrate to cause the selected micro-devices to adhere to the transfer surface and the transfer surface then transfers the selected micro-devices from the donor substrate to the destination substrate.
