  • Pick-and-Place Robot PPR is a robot that pick up delicate workpieces that make up electronic components and quickly and accurately transfers and assembles them to the base. In addition to the basic movements of raising and lowering and rotating, various sensors such as a force sensor that measures the force applied to the workpieces, solenoid valves, controller, and other components necessary for pick and place are all-in-one unit. The PPR with a pending patent is at the moment the world's first process-optimized robot that can improve the production speed of the electronic parts assembly process and reduce work damage.

    As component miniaturization progresses, the challenges faced by many electronic component manufacturers are reducing work damage and shortening cycle time during transfer. PPR solves these problems and contributes to higher productivity. In addition, by visualizing various sensor information such as force, flow rate, pressure, and temperature with dedicated software, malfunctions can be quickly solved.

    THK's sensor technology detects the smallest forces as soon as the workpiece encounters the suction nozzle. The detection and fast communication enable high speeds in operation with reduced workpiece damage.

    The PPR enables sequence control with each motor and sensor integrated. Compared to conventional PLC-based control, the communication is reduced, and time loss is minimized.

    The integrated process control visualizes various sensor information such as force, flow rate, pressure and temperature. Enables integrated process control, which improves quality and reduces downtime.

    The Pick-and-Place Robot PPR is suitable for SMD applications with a throughput of more than 3600 pcs./h.
