Awesome @Griffin Paquette - Just remember, they take a lot of tuning... I got up and running very quickly, as do most folks, but the took months to really dial it in for repeatable accurate results. If only Charmhigh would send me a new PnP as a thankyou ;)

Great to see it working..........and I love the idea of PnP for my own Pcb production, even if it's just for the jelly bean parts which I hate doing by hand as I don't by the expensive parts in reels......jelly bean is where I lose most of my time. Maybe one day!

I still enjoy hand assembly, but not in quantity. Definitely not when under pressure anyway ;) You should get one!

When I see people going all in about dissing a brand online I usually suspect something is up and actually support the brand instead. I have bought their CHM-T48VB and have been more than pleased. My message to those who complain: design and make your own and put it up for sale - and I shall buy it.

I have similar machine, Qi-He TVM802B and similar problems. My has poor cameras. I would like to convert it to OpenPnP but that would be quite a massive job I guess. Nice video.

Really cool. I wouldn't had the patience for this.

Dear Seon thanx for the video, I have two questions Is the CHMT36VA in every case equipped with the closed loop Controller ? The web site say nothing specific about the versions and do you have modified the noisy vacuum pump ? Thanx for your answer regareds Joerg

I think "teething issues" is an understatement, but yes, purring like a kitten now!

Is it worth moving to a larger panel size or is the oven a limiting factor?

@UnexpectedMaker

4 жыл бұрын

I think this is about as big as I can get and still do reliable stencilling to be honest. Reflow is also a problem due to even-ness, but I'm sure my pasting would mess me up more. I've thought about adding another column of 5 TPs.. but I'm over the production hump, so doesn't make sense to change now I don't think.

Congrats on the 100% speed. Is the space saved with 0402 parts worth the extra trouble they cause?

@UnexpectedMaker

4 жыл бұрын

Well=, the TinyPICO wouldn't be as small as it is if I used bigger parts, so yes, it's worth the trouble. Now to work out how to use 0201 on it!

The file you send to the PnP, Is it the whole panel or just the one unit, Telling the PnP the panel size?

I use just the single board, and tell the PnP software what the panel X,Y counts is and the spacing.

And mind you sir... What sort of vacuum it is using..? It's really silent

Are you selling your PnP machine design.?

wow, this is fairly impressive for the cost of this unit, granted yes you pay for it in time spent fiddling, but still. it seems as if they could easily upgrade the head to 4 nozzles.

@UnexpectedMaker

I'd love a 4 head machine... they sell them, but not this small. Much bigger and cost a lot more!

You must have had a lot of boards to make to justify the amount of money and time spent on this machine. All the best with it.

I have KZread Vanced and it defaults to 1.25x speed....and it's still slow. Build a Delta, model it off of the Omron Adept.

@UnexpectedMaker

4 жыл бұрын

What? Slow? It's doing 1800-2200 CPH with vision, placing 0402 - on a AUD $5k PnP. You should do more research on PnP costs and speed/capabilities :-)

@jojoposter

4 жыл бұрын

Hahaha. Yeah i thought about a delta pnp but the size required for this build volume would be huge. And the precision requirement for pick and placeing 0402 components would be hard to satisfy. This machine is not limited by xy travel (ok maybe a bit) but it gets limited by the feeding and placing mechanism as well. So a delta (while moving faster) would not necessarly yield a better component per hour (cph) value

Too slow for the stepper motors that it uses,

Upgrade to Windows 10

Why? Firstly, the software is only supported on Win7 (some have gotten it working on win10 through some hacks) - Secondly, all this machine does is run the PnP - what do I need win10 for? Extra bloat, more bugs, no advantages, same result.
