PMJ launches HiSAC 1502 final assembly cell

Keywords PMJ, Electronics assembly

PMJ automec, supplier of automated end-of-line solutions, expands its range of advanced final assembly cells with the introduction of the HiSAC 1502 (Plate 6). The HiSAC 1502 delivers twice the throughput of standard assembly cells by utilising PMJ's dual head configuration. Employing two, fully independent robotic heads, the 1502 offers users unrivalled flexibility and rapid reconfiguration – in a system that has a compact 1.5 metre footprint.

Unlike traditional dual beam arrangements, the 1502's dual independent heads are positioned side-by-side for maximum speed and versatility. Both heads can perform a myriad of assembly functions – from screw driving for final assembly to odd-form placement, soldering and more. For assembly applications both heads utilise a dedicated servo gripper that allows the 1502 to pick-up a vast array of different sized final assembly components. This is combined with an automatic tooling (or finger change) mechanism that allows an equally wide range of different shapes to be accommodated. Because screw driving is one of the most common manual final assembly operations, the HiSAC 1502 includes a screw driver capability that can be easily configured as an option as and when required. The HiSAC 1502 uses an advanced feeder interface that can accept components supplied in almost any format from tray to GPAX, tube or special feeders.
