Lol....out latest pick and place machines fit 5 components a second......and they can be big components.

Each item is collected from a tape and reel or waffle tray, inspected by a camera for orientation etc and then placed exactly where required......ut can even test the component value but this slows the process down.......so it does that lot 5 times a second.....very good to watch.

Yes, not seen a modern pick and place in action. Last pick and place I saw took3 or 4s per component.  5 per sec must look impressive :y

Back when we used to have mobile phone manufacturing in the UK I used to visit the factories occasionally. It's truly incredible what can be achieved by these machines. Only thing that let them down were the few human steps involved in the line :-X

I need to do the one I broke last week, which hopefully I'll do tomorrow.  Looks easy enough.
