The SMT vacuum suction board Loader machine is a key automated device in SMT (surface mount technology) production lines, primarily used for the automatic feeding and transfer of PCBs (printed circuit boards). Its core function is to use vacuum suction technology to precisely pick up and transfer bare boards, replacing manual operations to improve production efficiency and accuracy.
Functional
Automatic feeding: As the first process in the SMT production line, it sequentially sucks and transfers stacked bare boards to the transfer station or printer.
High Compatibility: Supports PCBs of various sizes (50×50mm to 250×400mm) and thicknesses (1-30mm). Some models can handle aluminium substrates or double-sided PCBs with components.
Interoperability: Communicates with upstream/downstream equipment such as board loaders and transfer stations to achieve fully automated production lines.
Technical Principles
Vacuum Suction System:
Generates negative pressure via a vacuum generator or vacuum pump, with suction cups adhering to the PCB surface. Suction force is adjustable (e.g., high-pressure suction cup design).
Suction cup layout is flexible, supporting position adjustment to accommodate different board types.
Control and Drive System:
PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) + touchscreen HMI for automatic/manual mode switching and parameter settings.
A translational mechanism (e.g., ball screw) ensures precise positioning of the PCB board (accuracy ±0.05mm).
The SMT vacuum PCB handling machine is a critical automated device in SMT (Surface Mount Technology) production lines, primarily used for the automatic feeding and transportation of PCBs (Printed Circuit Boards). Its core function is to achieve precise gripping and transportation of bare boards using vacuum suction technology, replacing manual operations to enhance production efficiency and precision.
