The 4797S HSP includes: a maximum placement speed of 48,000 components per hour; machine dimensions of 2400 x 1963 x 2155mm; a component handling range covering 0201s to 26mm-square parts, as well as area array packages; capability for handling printed circuit boards up to 250 x 330.2mm (10 x 13in); advanced, direct drive heads for greater throughput and improved positioning accuracy; and a linear-motor-driven feeder carriage for greater precision and accuracy in component pickup.
"It's exciting to be able to offer customers the high throughput of the 4797 HSP in a compact footprint", stated Heinz Dommel, HSP product manager.
"This really strengthens our offering for high-volume applications where typically, throughput per line length is a critical metric for the manufacturer".
