What a machine!

Not just a production upgrade, a mental health upgrade

100% a mental health upgrade - that was a huge part of the decision. So far so good!

The JUKI RS-1R is an amazing machine, and the most preferred machines throughout the industry. Congratulations!

Seon, you've done a really nice job getting this far so quick, I want to thank you for sharing these videos, it makes a big difference to the community to be able to follow along!....Reach for the skies!

Cheers mate! I've taken lots more videos of all sorts of random things - Hopefully I'll be able to post snippets regularly.

Wow that PnP has a nice beat to it, just need some more cowbell! You know the machine is going to be fast with a ballscrew twist like that, it's super impressive that the accuracy is good enough while moving that fast.

A $100000 machine will do magic for sure.

Congrats, this is huge! It's great to see how far you've come, from the very early "component spray" garbage that had a 99% carpet attachment rate to this pro setup running smoothly in a new place with tons of space. You should be proud!

Thanks Mate. Yeah, I am proud, and excited about the future - well, beyond global financial meltdown ;)

Congratulations on the progress you have made in manufacturing your design. A job well done!

Thanks for sharing a sneak peek of the new Juki in action as its awesome seeing new boards being assembled to such precision! Congrats again and I look forward to following the journey as you expand the range of products in the future. 👍

@@UnexpectedMaker Thats super cool. So you started to use 01005 now? That would make routing so much easier, at least in my head.

Lol, no plans on going that small... but I am using 0201 in my BlizzardS3 - and might use more of them as time goes on, only if it makes sense. You should always use the largest parts you can fit - for ease of design and manufacturing.

I like it thanks

That is an amazing machine, each part took an average of .29 seconds to place.

I notice the boards are loaded to the right of the machine - wouldn't it be faster if it stopped in the centre , so avarage distance to feeders is shorter?

@UnexpectedMaker

Жыл бұрын

Not really - 70% of my components across most of my products live on the front right and back right of the feeder banks. Putting the PCB in the centre would make it further away than that majority of the parts. Some of my products span the full width of the front feeder bank, but only have 200 parts per panel, so I'm still smashing out a panel in a few mins ... faster than my oven can keep up with. I also don't need 40k cph - There is no advantage for me to make 1000 boards in a day compared to 500 in a day. Assembly is the quickest pat of the process for me. I still have to separate them, clean them, test them and pack them.

Really nice to see it working. I was wondering in the middle if you could move the boards back to the left to reduce travel time when most of the parts were coming from the front left reels.

@UnexpectedMaker

The stop position is not a user settable thing. I can physically move it, but not per job - as moving it requires disassembly, and re-calibration and setup. I'm happy where it is... remember, I'm already getting 4-5x faster than what I had, with 100% perfect placement - and I can get faster just by adding more nozzles and fixing some feeder placements, so moving the stop position isn't worth the effort.

Awesome machine! It doesn't looks like it is using the camera to see component orientation, or it is so fast I just didn't notice it. Is the placement in the feeders that precise so it isn't needed? Or just magic? 😁

@UnexpectedMaker

Жыл бұрын

Correct, it's not using the camera at all - it's using a laser curtain to measure the entire component on each nozzle, on the fly :) Juki have a "unique, patented and fiercely protected" way they measure components like this... It is kinda magic! The camera is used for BGAs or any components where I want to not only measure the size/shape of the component, but also count pins or detect orientation markers under the package etc... none of that is needed on these boards.

Always awesome to watch these japaneeze elephants move 0402 parts at near lightning speed. So you spent half a mil to stuff how many millions of boards a month?

So have you got a catch try underneath? Long way from the CrapHigh.

@UnexpectedMaker

Жыл бұрын

There's a proper discard shute and yes, under each feeder bank there's a catch tray for the cut tape and any parts that fall through :)

How much it cost (roughly) ? We did buy the Neoden K1830 2 years ago but did only small batch so we put it only at 20% speed.

It cost a lot - totally different realm to the Chinese machines, and totally different price point.
