When assembling printed circuit boards with tiny SMD components, the support of an assembly system is required. With the LPKF Edition SMT ProtoPlace E4 manual pick & place system, components are safely removed from the component trays or integrated tape feeders by vacuum needle.
The ergonomically shaped placement tool is guided to the appropriate position above the PCB, the component is placed, and the vacuum is deactivated - all very easily with just one hand. An integrated camera, the monitor directly above the work surface, and the smooth running of the axes support precise work.
