Tuning Fork t/a Hawker Richardson

22 February 2012 Events

Yamaha has developed the new YSM40 high-density modular surface mounter. Adopting a 4-beam, 4-head layout on a compact platform with a width of just one metre, it achieves mounting speed of over 100 000 CPH as well as flexibility of application in a variety of production formats. It is optimised for manufacturing small to mid-sized PCBs and features 4- or 2-beam layouts, three different types of heads and a dual-lane conveyor layout, allowing for a great variety of work variations. A number of new functions are provided by devices like a tray-components supply carriage that enables changing of all pallets at once and the newly developed electric-powered ‘ZS Feeder’ tape feeder with a non-stop insertion/extraction function that work together to increase capacity for non-stop production.

Learn more about the machine at stand B15.
