Yamaha Robotics has released three new hardware-based performance options for high-speed mounters that enhance productivity, quality control and flexibility for handling special products such as large LED boards.

Nozzle tip force measurement system is designed for early detection of placement force changes, protecting fragile components from damage and accurately tracking any changes in force to allow for timely nozzle maintenance. Is implemented with a module fitted at the mounter’s feeder interface and provides an easy menu-driven setup and measures the component-placement force to within 0.1N resolution.

Electrical component verification system measures the inductance, capacitance or resistance (LCR) values of components in SMD-chip packages to verify the correct part type and tolerance before placement, allowing for the instant detection of issues such as feeder errors, reel errors or defective components before placement.

Option for much larger board sizes lets YRM mounters handle boards up to 1.6m long and 510mm wide, for producing assemblies such as extra-large LED-lighting boards. Increases the maximum board size by more than 30% compared to standard YRM mounters and accepts boards up to 10mm thick and weighing up to 10kg.
