Prusa MK3s Pick and Place Extension [3D printed] 👌

Ғылым және технология

My Pupiplex Push to Pick and Place Extension invention for 3D printers.
If you need custom PCBs/3D prints/CNC parts check out PCBWay: pcbway.com/
After I installed 81 LED chips by hand, I thought that it should be a better way for this. So I took my 3D printer and printed an extension for it, which makes the job for me. That's what machines are for, aren't they?
I have not seen such solution anywhere before, that is why I call it as an invention. Thought about to patent it, but I end up to publish it so that you can use the idea for your DIY projects.

    It wouldn't matter if was the same speed or even a little slower. The fact that you don't have to place any of them means you could be doing other things like setting up the next run. This is the perfect kind of hack for a 3D printer.

    Now somebody just needs to make a slicer that maps a PCB file + a file containing position of components in a component tray into the motion required for this tool head. Combine that with a jig that clamps onto the bed in order to make short work of zeroing the PCB & component tray relative to the expected gcode positions more quickly and you could quite easily optimize the setup process for a larger variety of PCB designs. Throw in a bit of linear advance and other 3D Printing tricks and you could even shave off time from the actual execution. DIY PCB machines might become practical enough to make add-on kits for some 3d printers (I'm thinking in the same vein as the Ender Extender kit for the Ender 3) as like a rapid prototyping tool for PCB designers (Which would probably be used in unison with a CNC capable of making DIY PCBs, or one of the other methods of fabricating DIY PCBs). Edit: Now that I think about it, it would probably be better to make it an add-on for a CNC with a tool changer instead of a 3D Printer. Although, I think the gcode PCB mapping software I described above would still be applicable.

    When you said belt, i thought you meant something like the White Knight by Nak3D or the CR-30! Which now that i think of it would allow for easily integrated (just need a placer mechanism for new plates maybe?) automatic production! Granted the lack of aligning/visual confirmation equipment may be an issue. Maybe Guidebars (to constrain the square boards to a parallel and smaller part of the belt) and some sort of LumenPnP component fork could make it work!

    Full bed jig would be possible. It would be even better to make a jig which holds the reals themselves and the print head could be programmed to roll down the real, so it needs to move always the same place and would leave more space on the bed for the PCB. Sounds like a future project :). Smallest thing I have not tested yet. But I would not think, that it can grab the smaller resistors and capacitors. Another missing feature, that it can not turn the grabbed parts, that is why I had to put the LED reels like that. I could install a stepper motor on top of it to solve this issue, but then it would be more complex to make it easy to install, because of the extra wiring.
