Touted as the flagship model of its YS series, Yamaha’s YS24 is designed for superior area productivity, component applicability and ease of setup.
Two sets of 10 in-line multi-heads are located on two beams within a compact platform that has a width of 1,25 m. In addition, the adoption of a newly developed dual-stage conveyor achieves area productivity of 34 000 components per hour per square metre (CPH/m²), coupled with mounting capability of 72 000 CPH under optimum conditions.
The unit is capable of handling large printed circuit boards – up to 700 mm in length and 460 mm in width. The SS Feeder – a microcomputer controlled, electric powered tape feeder – and a compact, lightweight feeder carriage have been adopted for the part changing unit, creating a mounting line configuration that boasts superior setup productivity in addition to very high production efficiency.
