Homemade SMD Pick and Place Machine - complete cycle
Ғылым және технология
A complete cycle with solder paste dispensing, placement, reflow soldering.
There are still some issues regarding placement accuracy of the small parts. The bridges at the 0.65mm pitch part were expected.

Very professionally made machine! I love the way it manipulates with IC's. Keep up the good work.
With great support from Volker, I finalized my machine in Jun/July 2014. It´s not an easy project and it´s not cheap. I already made hundreds of PCB´s with thousands of components placed. The machine is running perfect. Once again Volker, Thanks, Thanks,Thanks

That is quite a piece of engineering. I was expecting a modified 3D printer picking from a tray or something. Incredible!
that's an incredible machine, I can't imagine how many hours you spent on that! congratulations.
Hacía tiempo que no veía algo tan espectacular. Enhorabuena por tu trabajo.
Tutorials would be awesome! BTE that perfectly illustrates my idea for my stockless online shop
The scanning part is the best. Awesome vid so satisfying to watch!
you made it on your own , that's damn impressive !!!!
Wow. I was getting ready to turn my Shapeoko 2 into a PnP, but now I have to add all the features I see here. Very, very nice!

Klasse Projekt. Hut ab. Macht richtig Spaß der Maschine zuzuschauen.
You made a wonderfull work and you share it on your website for free. You have all my respect for that, you are amazing !
Dear VBsProjects, great video, we are also working on a opensource pick and place machine.
I just received this on my recommandation and I find it amazing ! Great job ! Unfortunally your last video (this one) is 4 years ago, are you going to make more video to show your talent ?
You have an amazing machine! I run a 3 machine Universal Fuzion SMT line for a living and the only difference between mine and yours is speed, and $250K per machine. With equipment like that you need a simple screen printer to apply your solder paste. Great machine!!!

Solder paste printing process involves a metal screen that you lay on top of the PCB, with tiny cutouts at just the right locations, then the solder paste is uniformly applied to the area which then fills-in the holes where the solder must go on the board. So instead of the 1st process shown in video where the paste at each solder joint is applied individually, all solder joints would get the paste in one step with the printing process thereby reducing the cycle time drastically and boosting your production output :).

Absolutely undeniably cool. I want to know more about the xy axis alignment.

Ok this is great, always loved the idea of this being part of an electronics workshop, I've never seen an inexpensive version of one, it may run at a few hundred times slower speed but its not for mass manufacturing anyways...so cool!!

Actually it does not run that slow... most pro machines only have ability to pick 10 components at once (10 nozzles) and also cameras directly on head to align components while travelling, but travel speed can be sped up only until physics permit it - weight of component, suction of nozzle etc makes a huge part in it.
Im crying watching this :'( What an insane homemade assembly machine!!!
Great work. And making it open source, Thumbs UP!
Hi, it is a fantastic machine you have put together! I am interested to know how successful have you found the paste dispensing if you include the place and reflow process? Your needle size seems spot on for the parts you show but the pcb has some far smaller pitch parts than that needle could print for. How do you deal with that?
Beautiful work !
Great Job, beautiful machine & Free Sharing ! Great Again

You are an iron man. Awesome. Gonna start my journey building one. Deadline. One year. Thanks for the inspiration.
very cool machine, nicely built!
wow... brilliant engineering!
Awesome project. Did you make it by yourself? One of the best I ever seen.
I have wanted to make one of these for a long time now... haven't had a project that needed on until recently. a couple friends told me I'm stupid for wanting to make one. but this so shows it can be done. if your willing to, I'd love to have a chat about some of your design aspects :)
AWESOME ! your professionalism is on display and is very impressive. It is now 4 years later than you posted this video. Can you post a update on how it is working now ? The setting the zero for the IC's was brilliant. Others mentioned that doing every other pad for solder might help with the bridging. I do not know the issues, but thought that backing off the pad in alignment with the pad might have any solder paste trails fall into the board, and that going from pad to pad may be faster, but the solder trails would fall onto the adjoining pad.

hey awesome too good i love it!! i wonder how you could came up with something like this, well done man keep it up !!
Thank you for sharing this cool video! 🐻🖐🏻
Just beautiful!
That is really cool. What are the LEDs doing to the components when the arm moves it over them? Do they heat up the contacts to help place them against the solder paste?
Great job .. I wonder what type of motors are you using in X Y Z .. they are very smooth and fast .. Is it a servo motors or stepper. And could you please tell me the name of the cam or write the link cause I wanna buy one :)
Awesome job man!
I have always wanted to buy a 3D printer.. couldn't afford one since in my country everything in 10x the original price.. so i built my own. This video is inspiring
I think you could have some reasonable wins if you sorted the paste dispensing points by their X and Y coordinates. Since it doesn't have to pick anything up, that would likely be the most efficient way.

@spambot7110

also, did you ever sort out the moves for bringing a part over the alignment camera? seems like there were some easy wins there: combine the separate x and y moves into one diagonal move, and run that initial part rotation during the move instead of while stationary over the camera before it activates. i'm also curious about the pauses between each move in general, is that to prevent vibrations from from one move messing with the subsequent move? it seems like most of the Z move (aside from the bottom few mm) would be pretty insensitive to vibration so i wonder if it's necessary between xy and z moves. i'd be curious if you could even start the z move slightly before the xy move ends, as long as xy is has come to a stop for the last [part height + max part height + some margin] of z travel (and leave enough time for any vibrations to dissipate before contact). i imagine that latter part would be a fair bit harder to implement though!

@@spambot7110 There's actually a reason why it doesn't rotate while moving with bigger parts. They are much more likely to fall off. Notice also how the speed of the motors is reduced when carrying larger parts. I think before inspection it's intentionally avoiding going over the PCB in case it does fall off or fail inspection. If it fell off during movement over the PCB that could knock other parts out of alignment and be a mess for the operator.
Great job, amazing!
Congratulations. Good machine..
excelent, can i using eagle project or proteus, or only altium can using this machine ?
You need carrier support the pcb not to be flex. Anyway, its amazing DIY. Next stage is the oven?
Very impressive. We should all envy you.
good job! how long did that take you to make?
Great machine design and build. What did it cost to prototype? And did you 3D model the design?If so, what 3D modelling program did you use? Perhaps designing and fabricating a solder paste stencil would be a better solution to 0.65mm pitch (and all other) devices.
Unbelievably coool. Do you use servos or microspepping with encoders?
Habe ja schon sei einiges gesehen, was pick'n'place betrifft. 2014 veröffentlicht, wow, ist ja schon ne Weile her. Auf Deiner Homepage scheint der Automat nicht weiterentwickelt - trotzdem eine excellente Arbeit, die sicher viel Zeit beanspruchte und offenbar derzeit sein Bestimmungswerk verrichtet. Ich selbst besitze zwei Automaten von Autotronik, ok das sind Industriemaschinen, weiss wo die Probleme bei Bestückern so sind. Ich muss ganz ehrlich sagen, Respekt vor so einem beeindruckenden Stückwerk - hast das echt komplett selbst entwickelt? Grandios! Mittlerweile gibts ja aus China kleine Bestücker für n Appel und n Ei - so etwa 4000 Euro. Mehrfach habe ich überlegt, ob für Einzelprojekte, die ich gerade im LED Bereich habe, ein einziges Gerät angeschafft wird und dann tagein, tagaus nur am rödeln ist. das was Du hier zeigst sieht sehr solide aus, hast schon Einsatzerfahrung? Ist denn eine Produktion des Gerätes geplant? Oder doch nur ein schnuckeliges Einzelstück? Was sehr schade wäre...Es gibt mit Sicherheit einen Markt für so ein Schmuckstück, wenn es sich nachhaltig produzieren liese. Jedenfalls meine Neugier ist geweckt - planst da noch mehr in der Richtung - oder wars das? Absoluter Daumen hoch!!!!
Is it for sale somewhere ??
Your paste dispenser seems to work really well. Does the temperature of the paste matter?
That's Awesome! but why wouldn't you screen print the paste?
cool man it's truly a marvelous machine
Just amazing !
Legend!!!!! Great feat of achievement 👍
great job man. congrats
Awesome! Really cool. What is the software do you use for it? I mean to generate gcode.
I LOVE it im so ecited to make one like this so how it cost for u bro
This machine is ffing awesome.
Great project! I have a question, how does the effector know where to place the SMD? Is everything hard coded such that the coordinate of the SMD is known and the effecetor just travels to that specific location?

Amazing. You are very good.

Respekt! Deutsche Wertarbeit. Hast Du die Firmware für das Maschinchen insbesondere die Ausrichtungs-Einheit selber erarbeitet? Ich möchte bald so was ähnliches produzieren. Kannst Du mir für die Steuerung Literatur empfehlen, so dass ich das Rad nicht komplett neu erfinden muss? Am liebsten währe mir auf Basis von AVR Microcontroller. Da habe ich schon Erfahrungen sammeln mit anderen Projekten können. Für eine Antwort währe ich sehr dankbar.
Lol it has nozzle changer :D
How does that quick change system work? Are you using air pressure?
Hello. I'll build a semi-automatic P&P machine and I've a question: Wath is the right vacuum ratio for the pump and does it have to be regulated (in kpa)? (it's welcome if you have some references)

I'm going to build one of those to automate production in my joule thief factory.
