Pick and place

Bitraf har nå en pick-and-place-maskin (bestykkningsmaskin) Denne krever kurs, som blir satt opp i løpet av sommeren 2018.

Vi har en SmallSMT VP-2500HP-CL32

Se for øvrig siden som ble opprettet før vi gikk til innkjøp av maskinen: pick_and_place_innkjop

Starting the machine

The machine seems picky about the order of start-up. Her eis what seems to work consistently.

1. Start VisionPlacer V2,
2. Turn the machine on using the shutdown button
3. Open the camera
4. Press Connect

Setting up feeders

Det er 3 areas for reel feeders. 19* proprietary component feeders on East, og 23 on West. In addition there is the possibility of 32 CL-feedere in South.

It is possible to position the camerate at the feeders by right-clicking the feeders in the list, and using "Camera to feeder test".

Component rotation happens between picking and visual inspection. So one can check that the component is rotated correctly in the camera view before placement.

• 1 feeder is outside the workarea and cannot be used.

Using components from tray

Adjusting origin

Testing so far shows that the machine must be adjusted for good results. Do it in this order:

1. Visual Origin: Adjust manually with the mouse so the visual origin is in the cross (Set -> Basic Settings -> Visual Origin Coordinate -> Click the CX & CY buttons to set current position as origin)
2. PCB Origin: Adjust camera manually to align with the Lower Left corner of the PCB. Click the "PCB Edit" button (fgreen icon). Next to the Origin X & Y, click the CX/CY button to set current position as the coordinate.
3. Component Reel origin: Click the Reels-icon and Double-click the reel you want to adjust. Adjust manually with the mouse so the cross is dead centered on the component you want to pick up ( -> Visual Origin Coordinate -> Click the CX & CY buttons to set current position as origin)
4. Camera coordinates: Move Nozzle to Camera 1. Adjust so it's dead center. (Set -> Camera List -> Double click Camera 1 -> Set Camera X/Y Coordinates -> Press the X/Y button)
