MC-388LED, LED-capable pick-and-place system
Manncorp is offering MC-388LED, a pick-and-place system suitable for LED-panel assembly of up to 1.2m in a single pass and which can also serve as a mid-range placer for surface-mount components.
With a 192 tape-feeder capacity, it will also perform pick-and-place for larger back-plane boards requiring multi-feeders.
Cognex-based 'on-the-fly' alignment mounts any SMD from 0.4 to 0.2mm to 16 x 14mm, including flip chips, CSPs and uBGAs.
Upward-looking Cognex vision allows placement of larger components up to 150 x 100mm, BGAs, QFPs and connectors.
According to Manncorp, the MC-388LED's multiple abilities provides rapid return on investment (ROI) and gives its users, particularly contractors, the ability to handle a wider range of production assignments.
The machine features ball-screw X-Y drive, closed-loop servo control with linear encoding and full Cognex vision for a placement accuracy of 30um, 3 sigma.
It is available with two or four heads, achieving placement speeds from 6,500 to 10,000 CPH.
Waffle trays and stick feeders may also be accommodated in its massive placement area of 408 x 1200mm.
Conveyors for special applications are also available.
The MC-388LED is priced from $85,000 (?53,311).
