With the AES 03Speed line loader, PCBs can be separated from the stack or removed from a magazine and fed into the line. The material exchange is done autonomously by robots (AIV).
ASYS has extended the functionality of the line loader AES 03 Speed so that it can remove assemblies from magazine locations as well as bare PCBs from the stack and feed them into the line. This is made possible by an additional extractor with vacuum gripper. With this gripper, raw PCBs can be separated from the magazine from top to bottom and fed to the production line. During a format change, the gripper automatically adjusts itself in X and Y position so that the PCB is gripped centrally. When changing over to unloading single-sided assemblies from the magazine, the gripper is automatically lifted. The product change can thus be carried out fully automatically.
The system combines magazine and stack loader and saves space in the line. In addition, for the first time, raw PCBs are transported as a stack within the magazine with AIV and can be fed automatically into the system.
- Combined solution for magazines & raw PCB stacks
- Reduced space requirements & lower acquisition costs
- Autonomous processing thanks to AIV connection
