Abstract (en)
[origin: WO9931948A1] A placement system (1) has a pair of gantry beams (12) each supporting six placement heads (20) and a camera (30) on the opposite side. All are independently driven by linear motors. The six heads pick six components simultaneously according to a programmed picking configuration. Each beam (12) is coupled to fixed rails (8) by couplers (11) and the linear motors are controlled to skew the beam. This allows the heads to move two-dimensionally with respect to each other for multiple simultaneously placement.
