Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of assembly machine technology, specifically to an automatic assembly machine for main FPC cables. Background Technology

[0002] FPC (Flexible Printed Circuit) cables are a type of connecting wire assembly that can be bent to a certain extent. They are mainly used in industrial products. FPC cables are usually made of one or more flexible substrates. By embedding conductive copper foil and circuit layers, flexible circuit channels are formed. This design allows the FPC cable to be bent and folded within a certain range without damage. Therefore, compared with traditional rigid printed circuit boards, it has better flexibility and durability. With the upgrading of mobile phone assembly products, it is necessary to improve product stability and yield as soon as possible. Internal human resources are tight and costs are high. There is an urgent need to replace human labor with equipment. Therefore, an automatic assembly machine for main FPC cables is proposed.
