Description

Panasonic NPM-W2S is a single-beam placement machine developed based on the NPM-W2 platform. It is suitable for production scenarios that focus on reducing setup and conversion time and expanding feeder capacity. Its core component functions are as follows:
Placement head system
Multiple placement heads available: Provide lightweight 16-nozzle placement head, 12-nozzle placement head, lightweight 8-nozzle placement head, 3-nozzle placement head V2 and other options. Different placement heads are suitable for components of different types and sizes. For example, the 16-nozzle placement head is suitable for high-speed placement of small chips, and the 3-nozzle placement head V2 is more advantageous for placement of special-shaped components, with a maximum placement pressure of up to 100N.
Automatic recovery function: When a suction/recognition error occurs, for 4mm plastic (black), 8mm paper, and plastic (black) tape components, there is no need to stop the equipment. It can automatically correct the suction position and continue production, reducing downtime and improving production efficiency.

Visual recognition system

Using award-winning camera technology, it integrates component alignment, chip thickness measurement and 3D coplanarity inspection functions in one scan. It can accurately identify components, ensure accurate component placement, improve placement quality and production efficiency, and effectively detect component offset, thickness difference and pin coplanarity problems.

Feeding system
Large-capacity feeding: With 120 8mm input positions, it can connect more feeders to meet the feeding needs of various components, increase production flexibility and reduce the frequency of material changes.
Good feeder compatibility: The placement head, nozzle, tape feeder, exchange trolley, etc. are interchangeable with the NPM series, which is convenient for users to expand and upgrade on the basis of existing NPM equipment, reducing equipment procurement and maintenance costs.
Flexible feeding methods: It supports a variety of component supply methods, such as reels, trays and rods, and also supports stacked rod feeding, which can meet the feeding of components in different packaging forms and adapt to diversified production needs.

PCB processing system
Dual-track and single-track mode: In single-track mode, the supported PCB size is 50×50 to 750×550 (Batch mounting) or 50×50 to 350×550 (2-position mounting); in dual-track mode, the supported PCB size is 50×50 to 750×260 for dual-track transmission (Batch), 50×50 to 350×260 for dual-track transmission (2-position), 50×50 to 750×510 for single-track transmission (Batch), and 50×50 to 350×510 for single-track transmission (2-position), which can meet the production needs of PCBs of different sizes.
Quick line change: With the help of automation function, the line change time of each module only takes 3.5 minutes. By automatically switching the feeder and adjusting the placement program, fast line change can be achieved, which reduces the production preparation time, improves production efficiency, and adapts to small batch and multi-batch production mode.

Other auxiliary systems
PIP lighting unit: Equipped with PIP (Pin-in-Paste) lighting unit, it can identify the position and bending of the plug-in pins, ensure the accurate installation of the plug-in pin components, and improve the placement quality of the plug-in components.
Production tracking system: It has tracking functions from the work order level to the reference level, which can monitor and manage the production process throughout the process, realize complete path control, and facilitate production data statistics, quality traceability and production process optimization.
