- Description
Description
1. Placement Head System
Multi-Configuration Placement Heads
- H24S Head: Places 03015 metric components with ±25μm accuracy; dual H24S heads achieve 80,000 CPH in throughput-optimized mode.
- DX Multifunction Head: Dynamically switches between 12-nozzle, 4-nozzle, and single-tool configurations for 0402–102×102mm components (chips, large-form, odd-shaped), with optional dispense tool integration for in-module dispensing-placement workflows.
- Specialized Placement Modes: Supports press-fit insertion for large connectors and force-controlled clamping placements to meet niche production requirements.
2. Feeder System
High-Capacity Material Handling
- 130-Station Material Platform (8mm tape equivalent): Reduces changeover frequency by accommodating diverse component types, ideal for mixed-production environments.
- Multi-Feeding Compatibility: Supports tape, tube, and tray feeding units with hybrid placement capabilities for mixed-format components.
- Rapid Changeover Technology:
- Multi Feeder Unit (MFU) enables batch feeder replacement to minimize downtime.
- Optional offline-powered MFU allows one-button feeder function release for efficient external changeovers.
3. PCB Handling System
Versatile Substrate Management
- Single Conveyor: Processes 48×48–774×710mm PCBs.
- Dual Conveyor:
- Dual-track: Handles 48×48–774×330mm PCBs for parallel production of two distinct products.
- Single-track: Supports up to 774×610mm; optional upgrades for ultra-long substrates (e.g., LED panels).
- Dual-Track Parallel Operation: Enables concurrent production on one track during changeovers on the other, maximizing OEE.
4. Inspection System
Multi-Stage Quality Control
- Component Verification via IPS:
- Post-pick detection of component standoff, height, pick confirmation, and reverse placement.
- Pre-placement LCR testing for passive components (inductors, capacitors, resistors) to reject electrical non-conformances.
- 3D Coplanarity Scanning: Detects BGA/CSP solder ball defects (e.g., missing/reduced height) to prevent faulty components from entering the process.
- Pre-Placement Board Inspection: Laser sensor measures PCB warpage, rejecting boards outside tolerance (e.g., ±0.5mm) to ensure placement validity.
5. Motion Control System
High-Efficiency Mechanics
- Energy-Optimized Drives: Utilizes high-efficiency motors to reduce power consumption while maintaining precision placement performance.
- Precision Assurance:
- Dynamically calibrated motion controls ensure accurate component picking/placement across varying accuracy requirements (e.g., ±25μm for micro-components).
- Advanced servo algorithms minimize vibration and enhance repeatability for fine-pitch applications.
