technical term
Explanation of SMT industry terminology to help you understand the meaning of specialised terms.
feeder
The feeder’s role is to supply components to the mounter. Feeders can be categorized into four types: banded, tray, bulk box, and tube. They can also be classified as electric or pneumatic feeders.
suction nozzle
Suction nozzles are used to pick up and place components. They utilize vacuum adsorption to lift components, and then apply high air pressure to mount them. Certain specialized applications may require customized suction nozzles.
slideway
Bolts, slideways, and drive motors are key components of the X-axis and Y-axis motion mechanisms in SMT mounters. The use of self-developed drive motors along with high-precision, high-rigidity imported parts ensures the equipment meets requirements for high efficiency, durability, and low noise.
Stage vision
Fixed vision involves using a stationary camera to capture an image of a component after it has been picked up by the suction nozzle of the pick-and-place head. As the component is moved to its placement position, the fixed camera acquires the image and relays the data back to the control unit. The system then automatically adjusts to correct any positional deviations, ensuring precise component placement.
Vibratory Feeder Plate
The vibrating feeding tray is an automatic sorting and feeding device designed to arrange disordered workpieces into a neat, orderly, and directional arrangement through vibration, ensuring they are accurately conveyed to the next process.
Flying vision
Flying vision refers to the process of capturing images of an object while it is in motion and simultaneously determining the position and orientation of the object at the moment the picture is taken. This technology effectively reduces the need for equipment to stop during operation, thereby improving production efficiency.
mounting head
The mounting head operates between the component feeder and the fixed PCB. It retrieves components from the feeder, adjusts their position and orientation, and then accurately places them on the PCB.
control board
The computer control system, acting as the command center of the mounter, functions like a human brain. It records numerous machine parameters, processes signals from recognition equipment and sensors, and uses the mounter program to control the placement actions of the mounter.
