Description

It supports a large range of components (chips, FP-components and BGAs), so even the most complex tasks can be handled. An intelligent software and up to 200 possbile kitting slots minimze changeover times, which increases productivity for small lot sizes. It is possible to integrate the fully automatic machine into a line on site at any time or to retrofit other options.

Range of applications

Assembling and dispensing of prototypes and zero series, up to 4000 components per hour.

Feeding units

Feeding of components from tape, stick, tape stripe, tray and loose components.

Component capability

Chips 0201 up to Fine Pitch 70 × 70 mm and pitch 0.4 mm, BGAs, CSPs, µBGAs, QFNs and customs parts like connectors, wired LEDs etc.

Laser centering

The laser centering is directly installed on the assembly head. The component which has to be centered is while rotating measured by the laser centering. Its shadow on the opposite side is analysed and a contactless fast centering happens.

The component capability ranges from 0201 chips up to components with dimensions of 32 x 32 mm and Fine Pitch to 0.4 mm at PA520. BGAs can be centered in this way, too. The laser centering is also a method to determine the component dimensions like length, width and height.

Bottom-Vision

The bottom vision is an image recognition which measures and analyses the components that are too large for the centering at the head. The software for image recognition determines the exact assembling position and tests the BGAs of complete balls respectively that the FPs‘ wires aren‘t deformed. These components can be selected before processing. Used are components up to 0201, µBGAs, 0.3 mm Fine-Pitch or special components like for example connectors up to 70 x 70 mm.

smartFEEDER

smartFEEDER are intelligent feeders, that are equipped with a microprocessor control. Using a wireless barcode reader, reel- and feeder-barcode are programmed and saved in the software.

The placeALL® Pick & Placer has now knowledge about the amount, type and position of the feeder. Thus changeover times between different projects are greatly reduced.

Automatic fiducial recognition

This extension recognizes the fiducials on a circuit board by itself. This is especially useful for a smartLINEsystem. The position correction is done using a dot, cross, rhomb etc. on the circuit board. While assembling multi-boards, single circuit boards – which are marked by the producer – can be excluded.

Teach In

If no CAD data is available to create a new assembly project, each position can be teached in manually. Therefore the component is displayed and aligned virtually. After reaching the right placing position on the monitor, it is approved and automatically added to the assembly project.

CAD data converter

With the universal CAD data converter, you can import data from all common CAD programs in a few simple steps. To ensure a high machine load on the Pick & Placer, the corresponding data files can be prepared using our offline software version on a separate workstation.

Inline – system

A classic production line can be built using our inline transport system. This includes chaining of reflow ovens, automatic Pick & Placers and transfer units like loaders. Controlling works according to the SMEMA-Standard. The inline system can be retrofitted to the machine at the customer’s site at any time.

Dispensers

Dispensing of solder paste or glue can be done with two different systems: Time-pressure system For dispensing big solder paste dots or glue Microprocessor-controlled system This system detects parameters like cartridge temperature, fill level etc. By this Fine-Pitch components down to a pitch of 0.5 mm can be safely dispensed, the ideal solution for prototypes!
