Assignment

The challenge here is to fill SMT parts into trays correctly, where both the position alignment and the contact alignment must be taken into account. Different SMT part sizes necessitate formula selection. Aluminium and plastic trays also need to be filled. The emitted sound must not exceed 50 dB(A), and the process must run fully automatically. System autonomy of more than four hours is required.

Solution

Our solution includes the separation of SMT parts and their precise placement in trays. Automatic position correction through the use of vision systems ensures exact placement. A Mecademic six-axis robot and the Asyril feeder system on a seventh axis ensure extensive range and flexibility. The GRITEC algorithm makes it easy to teach in new trays. A light curtain ensures easy access and flexible removal of full trays. The system runs reliably during operation without human intervention (ghost shifts).

Customer benefits

This precise filling of SMT parts into trays increases the efficiency and quality of the production process. Automatic position correction and flexible handling of different tray types reduces both manual effort and mistakes. Integration of the Mecademic six-axis robot and the Asyril feeder system ensures a high degree of flexibility. Thanks to the automatic teach-in function of the GRITEC algorithm, new trays can be taught in quickly. Reliable production without human intervention enables continuous manufacture even outside regular working hours, which increases productivity and lowers costs.
