TCQ automatic tray changer reportedly can replace a component tray in fewer than 5 sec. and align it with accuracy better than 50µm. The 18-bin changer comes on Cobra and Paraquda pick-and-place machines. Trays are stored in a magazine equipped with handles; can be replaced quickly. Standard magazines feature 18 or 14 slots, depending on tray thickness. Each slot has room for one standard Jedec tray; the space can be divided for several smaller trays.
