Introduction
According to Moore’s Law, the number of transistors doubles on integrated circuits every 18
months. This shows that the electronic components become smaller and more complex as
technology improves. For SMT/PCB board, same story applies. More components are needed
to be implemented and the gaps between pins are narrower. Therefore, it is inevitable to have
an accurate and fast dispenser for mass production. With Advantech’s automation solution,
the PC-based operating system can cope with the technology growth and future trend.
Project Requirements
Soldering components on each SMT/PCB board is
not a simple task. It not only requires identifying the
orientation of the board, but also adjusts the quantity
of the glue for each component on the board. Thus,
the dispenser needs to have a large data flow and
allows a variety of soldering motions. To formulate
such a system, we need the following components:
A motion control card commanding all the
movements
An isolated digital I/O card for data
communications and handshakes
