NPM-GH Pick-and-Place Machine Brings Mounting Accuracy to a New Level

July 16, 2024
Panasonic Connect's NPM-GH Pick-and-Place Machine for electronic assembly offers a ±15 µm mounting accuracy and places 51,000 chips/hour, reducing errors and saving on labor.

The NPM-GH Pick-and-Place machine minimizes manufacturing expenses by reducing material waste, provides relief for industry-wide labor shortages, and helps manufacturers reach Industry 4.0.

Originally debuted at IPC APEX Expo 2024, the automated solution uses robotic surface-mount technology. It maximizes output using three newly designed heads and shorter spindle strokes to reduce pick and place times and vibrations for higher output and accuracy with minimal human interface.

Features:

  • Mounting accuracy (±15 µm).
  • Smaller and lighter mounting head for increased productivity (reaching 51,000 chips/hr)
  • Ultra-precise specification (±10 µm) focusing for accurate placement capabilities
  • Enlarged operating screen with user interface to reduce production errors and delays
  • Large 12.1 in display monitor
  • New 3, 8, and 16 head lightweight nozzles
  • Predictive & targeted maintenance options
