There is a general healthy amount of skepticism towards all these solution but since technology is evolving fast we might have reached a point where such a machine is good enough for projects like us that assemble a medium amount of PCBs per batch.
1 NeoDen4
The Neoden4 is a brand new machine first officially shown at SEG in Shenzhen in October 2015.
2 Liteplacer
500 parts/hour
2 cameras
1200€

5 Visionbot
2000 parts/hour
3000$ - 6500$ options (depending on number of feeders)
"We have two VisionBot machines that are gonna be shipped nationally in Romania to two customers. One will be shipped next Saturday. We prefer national customers first, because in case they find any malfunctions in VisionBot, we are able to fix them fast. Unfortunately, we can not ship it right away. We are looking to redesign the feeding system (at least 3 weeks) because it takes too much time for us to create and manufacture the automatic feeding system within VisionBot."
6 Vision Placer
Dual Head

6000 - 10000$
2000- 3600 parts/hour
7 Novastar L-SF40 Benchtop

around 18,000 $
8 Diy options
OpenPnP:
The goal of the OpenPnP project is to design open software and hardware for a fully functional SMT pick and place machine for under 1000$. The software seems to be out of the beta phase and is used in a lot of other PnP projects. Also the sources of their hardware are available but still work in progress...

FirePick Delta:
The FirePick Delta looks like a very promising project. It is planned as kind of self replicating PnP machine. Based on a lot of open source projects it also uses OpenPnP. With a quick changing head you can select from different tool tips like SMT vacuum nozzles, SMT paste extruder or 3D printing head. Beta testing kits for 1500$ are out in the wild. For the promised ability of placing 0402 parts there is still a long way to go...

3D Printed Pick 'n Place by Jtroncis:
A very compact and functional design. At the moment only a few parts of the machine are published on Thingiverse but a good source for ideas if you plan to design your own PnP machine... no public activity at the moment and no response to inqierys!
