Introduction
A handheld electronics manufacturer faced the risk of not meeting customer demands when their
assembly process slowed to a crawl. They wanted to run their machine vision simultaneously
with motion control to save time, but the performance of their system became sluggish due to
the large memory requirements of the vision software. Our customer needed a major upgrade
to their assembly system, and wanted an automated system with real-time monitoring.
Project Requirements
Our customer wanted the system to operate a variety
of input and output options with tray, tube and tape
thus providing programming, marking and packing
conversions for most IC products on/in tray, tube
and tape.
In order to fully maximize the speed and accuracy,
machine vision is required to perform tasks with
the robotic arm simultaneously, which requires a
huge CPU memory cache. It became evident that an
integrated PC-based system was required to allow
high-performance automated control running in the
conjunction with the machine vision software.
To achieve such a system, the following components
were required:
•
A master card controlling all the motions and
data processing
•
A control card commanding actions of each
station
