Model 900 Series
Brochure Product Manual
 
The Model 900 Series is a kitless pick-and-place handler that automates test/mark/inspection of devices in JEDEC trays, waffle packs, and other inputs and outputs. Model 900 is a low-cost, small-to-medium-volume, servo-motor based, engineering system that uses single trays. It can use a wide variety of inputs (JEDEC tray, tubes, tape and reel, bowl feeder) and outputs (tray, tubes, tape and reel). Outputs can be configured for multiple sorting options. Pickup heads can carry 1 to 16 devices at a time. Ping-pong operation can move devices to two testers, each with multiple test sockets. All customization can be done using our standard building blocks.

Machine vision can be added for lead/ball inspection, OCR, 2D matrix reading, or device orientation. An in-tray laser-marking chamber with safety features can be added. Thermal testing is another option: hot to 155 C, cold to -55 C, and ambient testing—all in one insertion.
All Exatron pick-and-place handlers are kitless. Typical changeover requires test sockets and sometimes pickup tips. Changeover time is usually less than 3 minutes.
