Automatic component storage and retrieval cabinet

8 October 2014 Enclosures, Racks, Cabinets & Panel Products

Europlacer has finalised an OEM partner agreement with IEMME SPA, headquartered in Varese, Italy, to offer its full range of automated storage solutions.

The Lzero3 configurable cabinet has the flexibility to be adapted and tailored to fit a company’s particular production process. Additionally, it delivers up to 2083 unique SMT reels. The Lzero3 can be adapted in many combinations, as permitted by the total dimension of the cabinet.

Each system provides for humidity control systems to maintain relative humidity below 5% and both humidity and temperature are tracked in real-time based on user controlled set-points.

Benefits of the warehouse management system include integrated barcode scanner registration, multiple loading and retrieval, reel/tray/traceability, ‘absolute’ FIFO prioritisation retrieval, job order management and functional touch-screen software. Additionally, the cabinet monitors storage location, traces real-time stock movements and provides advanced features that re-allocate reels that are already in use in production for ongoing use.

All relevant component data information can be managed (date code, part number, batch ID, supplier, manufacturer, etc.) and minimum stock is automatically monitored. Environmental controls are consistent with moisture-sensitive levels defined in the IPC/JEDEC’s J-STD-20.

Europlacer and IEMME SPA are at work developing an advanced software interface to boost efficiency when Lzero3 is employed as an accessory with the Europlacer line.
