MC388 Mid-High Volume Pick & Place

High Feeder Capacity and Large Placement Area The MC388 is designed for high-mix, high-volume production, offering up to 256 feeder ports and a large placement area of up to 1200 × 408 mm. This combination minimizes changeover time while supporting large and complex PCB assemblies. Up to 256 feeder ports: enables near-zero job changeover in high-mix production Inline configuration: supports up to 192 feeders for automated lines Large placement area: up to 1200 × 408 mm (47.2" × 16") for panels and large boards Flexible workspace: supports PCBs, waffle trays, and cut strip tape holders Wide Component Range with High Placement Accuracy The MC388 delivers precise placement with 30 µm accuracy (3 Sigma), handling everything from ultra-small 01005 components to large devices up to 100 × 150 mm. 01005 to large components: supports parts up to 100 × 150 mm 30 µm accuracy (3 Sigma): ensures consistent, repeatable placement Dual-vision alignment: head-mounted and upward-looking cameras for precision True pad alignment: aligns leads, balls, and bumps directly to PCB pads Built for Long-Term Reliability The MC388 is built on a rigid, welded steel frame with precision motion components, ensuring stable performance and consistent accuracy even at high production speeds. Welded steel frame: provides stability during high-speed operation Precision motion system: ball-screw drives and servo motors ensure smooth movement Non-contact encoders: maintain consistent positioning accuracy Remote diagnostics: enables fast troubleshooting and support Flexible Configuration Options The MC388 supports both inline and batch configurations, allowing manufacturers to scale feeder capacity up to 256 ports and handle boards up to 1.5 meters in length. Inline conveyor system: SMEMA-compatible with automatic width control Extended board handling: supports boards up to 1.2 m or 1.5 m Batch configuration: unlocks full 256 feeder capacity Large board support: ideal for LED panels and oversized assemblies User-Friendly Production Software The MC388 uses a Windows-based software platform designed for fast setup, real-time monitoring, and efficient production control. Flexible programming: CAD import, manual teaching, or direct entry Visual PCB simulation: verify placement before production Real-time monitoring: track job status and performance On-the-fly adjustments: modify settings without stopping production
