TPM-30

TPM-30 is an automated production machine developed by Juki Corporation of Japan, which is mainly used for low-volume and quick-turnaround applications, such as topping and singulating devices in computer motherboards and hard disk drive production. It is well known for its advanced flexibility and easy-to-program features, and is also suitable for various SMT industries, such as consumer electronics, automotive electronics, medical electronics, and communications equipment manufacturing.

This machine is composed by two subsystems, a "fixed height" unit for PCB loading and unloading and manual component placement, and a “variable height” unit for component movement automation. It features a multi-channel continuous transport system that allows PCB material to be moved through different stages of production with a minimum of interruption. The machine also features an optical vision system that allows it to accurately locate components during the component placement process.

The PCB loading and unloading station allows operators to quickly prepare PCBs for placement on the machine. This system supports component placement styles such as Surface Mount (SMT), Ball Grid Array (BGA), and Through-hole, which enables it to be used in a wide variety of production scenarios. The “variable height” unit allows for dynamic adjustment of component height during placement, allowing for precision component placement when there are variations in PCB thickness or other variations in aspect. The unit can also be programmed to automatically sense the presence of components and adjust accordingly.

The machine features a simple programming interface that is easy to learn and operate. It allows operators to quickly and easily input parameters and commands, including component selection, placement location, and spacing. The machine is also capable of maintaining a high ongoing productivity, as it can be programmed to quickly switch between different production tasks. It is also highly reliable, as it is designed to reduce the possibility of machine failure and component misplacement.

The TPM-30 is a well-rounded automated production machine that is well suited for low-volume production tasks. Its advanced features and programming flexibility make it an ideal solution for many applications, and it is quickly becoming a popular choice in the SMT industry. Its easy programming interface and its ability to quickly and accurately adjust component placement make it an excellent choice for anyone looking to improve production efficiency and reduce production costs.
