Abstract
Our project is about pick-and-place machines for placing surface mount
devices like capacitors, resistors, integrated circuits onto the printed circuit
board which are in turn used in computers, consumer electronics as well as
industrial, medical, automotive, military and telecommunications equipment. In
general, the SMT pick and place machine uses an end effectors to pick and
place the component on the PCB and a controller is used to control the
movement of the stepper motors using Open PNP . Our SMT pick and place
machine was designed with a Cartesian configuration, and the
BIGTREETECH SKR V1.3 controller controls the stepper motors. The end
effectors use a vacuum suction pen to pick and place the components and a
belt mechanism is used in the z-axis for up-down motion. Our machine is well
suited for small scale industries. Our project satisfies one important
sustainable development goal - industry, innovation, and infrastructure
