Embodiment Construction

[0117] Identical or similar parts are denoted by the same reference numerals in the figures.

[0118] According to one embodiment, logistic costs in supplying materials currently account for a major portion of operating production lines and production equipment. Material supply is often solved in various ways because there are not many suitable solutions. On the basis of this document, this logistical outlay is significantly reduced by considerably shortening the paths on the production line or production plant.

[0119] According to a further exemplary embodiment of the invention, the basic idea consists in combining several functions and thus integrating the component memory directly in the production line. In this embodiment, a conveyor device, in particular a conveyor belt, is combined with a component storage. There is a module here which can store and transfer the material, but which also enables the flow of the component carriers to be assembled. The module can be in...

Abstract

An assembly system for equipping component carriers with components is described. The assembly system has at least three processing positions, which are arranged in a transport direction of the component carrier in sequence, wherein at least one processing position is a second automatic assembly machine configured to populate the component carriers with components from a second component storage element. Furthermore, the assembly system has a transport device which is configured to transport the component carriers from the first processing position with respect to the transport direction to the last processing position with respect to the transport direction. Furthermore, the assembly system has a component store which is arranged between the first processing station with respect to the transport direction and the last processing station with respect to the transport direction and located on the transport device, and which has a storage space configured to store the first component storage element and the second component storage element.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of manufacturing electronic components. In particular, the invention relates to an assembly system for assembling components to a component carrier, a production line and a production plant for manufacturing electronic assemblies. Furthermore, the invention relates to a method for equipping a component carrier with components and to a method for driving a production plant. Background technique [0002] Electronic assemblies and circuits with electronic components are typically mounted on one or more component carriers such as printed circuit boards (PCBs). The manufacturing process of electronic assemblies typically involves assembling components to the component carriers. If the components are placed on the On the surface, it refers to "Surface Mount Technology" (SMT). The SMT process is performed by the assembly head, which is an important part of the automatic assembly machine. The assembly head removes ...
