Latest revision as of 07:37, 21 October 2016

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.

7 NeoDen 4

New machine introduced in Fall 2015

can place 0201

placed component height limit is 5mm (http://dangerousprototypes.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=68&t=4903&start=495)

It has an integrated PC using an Atom processor. It runs Windows XP, in chinese. (http://www.eevblog.com/forum/reviews/neoden-4-pick-and-place/25/)

http://www.neodentech.eu/contents/en-uk/d8_NEODEN4.html

http://forums.parallax.com/discussion/153947/28-reels-2-heads-5799-pnp-getting-good-reviews/p2

If you get the non-conveyor belt option mounting PCBs does not seem to be very convenient: http://www.eevblog.com/forum/reviews/neoden-4-pick-and-place/75/ a user built his own system to take care of this (would also be an option for us).


  • 4 placement nozzles
  • Applicable components: minimum 0201, maximum TQFP240, can also mount BGA, QFN
  • up to 48 sets of automatic electric feeders
  • available with pcb holder or pcb conveyor
  • 10000 CPH (vision off), 5000 CPH (vision on)

NeoDen has a global Network of resellers. From a european reseller we would get support, warranty in the EU and and the machine has to be CE certified!

EU introduction price is 7.500€ for the pcb holder version

  • machine with stand
  • 8 tape feeders
  • vibratory stick feeder

Feeders:

  • 8mm: 70€/Pcs
  • 12mm: 80€/Pcs
  • 16mm: 100€/Pcs

We would need at least 1500€ for additional feeders...

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...

Homepage: OpenPnP

Sources: Hardware Software

Video: Demos of Jason von Nieda


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!
