SMTrue smart feeders are for use with vision-based automated pick-and-place machines. Come in all feeder types, including tape, bank, vibratory, matrix and cut-tape. Are managed through a smart feeder database; each is assigned a unique feeder ID. Database manages address, position, component dimensions, count, tape index and vibratory control; can recognize the presence or absence of a feeder, including a checklist of previously programmed information. Provide interactive feedback when component count becomes low or a feeder runs out of components.
