ii-Feed tape feeder has a capacity up to 33 separate component channels and accepts any mix of 8, 12, 16 or 24mm smart "elements." Elements provide part recognition, internal memory, auto adjustment of pick-up offset, programmable tape pitch in 2mm increments, and reel batch ID. Has a component range beginning at 01005. Is compatible with previous machine generations. Operates in three different modes: wired/wireless micro terminal, programming ii-elements separately offline, and with or without stock management options. Same type of element can be used for tapes (paper and plastic), full reels or short tapes. Data are automatically recognized. Reels can be prepared offline in magazines for up to 11 references; the cart can receive three magazines. Elements can be stored with reels in passive shelves.

N=1 Checker first article test system is prototype, high-mix/low-volume, and pre-production applications, component revision verification and production changeovers.
Test Program Generator software automates programming so untrained operators can use the system. Performs high-speed automatic impedance measurement for resistance and capacitance combined with a visual inspection system to verify component type, orientation, text, angle, presence and absence. Automatically records all data, which can be exported to user database and process control software programs.

JM-10 is for radial and axial component mounting. Feeders are compatible with all Juki machine types. Has a footprint of 1.5m. Components do not experience mechanical wear. During component measurement, body dimension is checked, and every lead is inspected. Twisted leads are recognized by the system; the affected component is not selected for assembly. Vibrating bowl feeder has capacity for up to six different components; each machine can place a max. of 12 different bulk components. For taped components, radial feeders are available. Between seven and 10 feeders can be set at the front or the rear of the machine. Can handle a mix of THT and SMT components. For QFPs, it provides vision centering with a 54 or 27mm view field.
