Essemtec Debuts CSM7100 Pick-and-Place w/ Intelligent Feeders
CSM7100 SMD pick-and-place fulfils the requirements of a high-mix/low-volume production. The low-cost system places components from 0402 to 33 x 33 mm QFP. The narrow built feeders are intelligent and programmable to reduce changeover time and avoid setup errors.
The large number of feeders (up to 100 x 8 mm) enables manufacturing of complex PCBs in one run and allows for a broad range of standard components. Changeover effort is minimum. High feeder variety provides a wide application range and high flexibility. Tape reels, tape strips, sticks and trays of any size can be used to feed parts. Tall components (15 mm height) can be placed.
All components are aligned "on-the-fly" with a laser centring system. With this touch-less technology components are measured exactly and no damage can occur. Furthermore, the laser alignment system is self-calibrating and requires no maintenance.
Has placement rate of 4,000 cph. Footprint is 80 x 80 cm, with a placement area of 380x250 mm. LIGHTPLACER Windows-based software features a fully graphical man-machine interface. Can be programmed online or offline. Barcode labels on feeders and components guarantee the correct, quick feeder setup using a barcode reader.
The combination of the pick-and-place with a dispenser saves the cost and floor space of additional equipment. A time/pressure or screw valve dispenser can be integrated.
