Assembleon SMT feeders are a range of feeding devices for their pick-and-place machines, including popular models like the Assembleon ZS, SS, CL, FI, FT/FS, and ITF/TTF series, available in various widths such as 8mm, 12mm, 16mm, and up to 88mm. They are essential for automatically supplying electronic components during PCB assembly.

Overview
Assembleon feeders are designed to supply components to Assembleon pick-and-place SMT machines such as Topaz series (Topaz X, Topaz XII, Topaz Emerald), Sapphire series, MC series (MC-1, MC-5, MC-8, MC-12, MC-24, MC-24X), MG series (MG-1, MG-2, MG-3, MG-8, MG-8R), Opal XII, Eclipse-II, and COMET

They are critical in automated PCB assembly and ensure precise material feeding for high-speed SMT production.

Types of Feeder
Common Assembleon SMT feeders include:
FI Feeder (SS and ZS types): Features V-Slots that allow the feeder to slide and lock into the system, with automatic carrier tape cutting and pitch setting
CL Feeder: Suitable for high-speed placement and small component sizes like 0201.
FT Feeder and FS2 Feeder: For various tape widths and component sizes.
Electric Feeder: Provides precise synchronization and reduces pneumatic wear.
Stick and Vibration Feeders: For bulk or non-tape components.
ITF/ITF2 R4.1 Tape Feeder: Supports tape widths from 8mm to 56mm, with single or twin tape options, delivering up to 99.95% pick performance
Tray Feeders and Label Feeders: Used for components supplied in trays or with labels.
Feeder Trolleys and Loading Units: Facilitate storage, transport, and calibration of feeders
