Case Study
SMT Pick-and-Place Machine (SSMI-02)
SMT Pick-and-Place Machine (SSMI-02) | Celera Motion SMT Pick-and-Place Machine (SSMI-02) Surface Mount Technology (SMT) revolutionized the printed circuit board industry by replacing insertion components and wave soldering with smaller, less expensive surface mount components and reflow soldering. As component size and spacing become increasingly compressed, the need for precise component placement becomes critical. High speed also is required to drive components per hour (>50K cph) in highly price competitive markets like memory manufacturing. Small and extremely fast rotary and linear motion axes need precise and reliable positon feedback. A pioneering pick-and-place manufacturer selected the MicroE ChipEncoder and M1500H kit encoders for their rotary and linear axes respectively. T
