Samsung stick feeder

Samsung stick feeders are vibration-driven (vibratory) devices for feeding SMD components in stick/tube packaging, designed for Samsung/Hanwha SMT pick-and-place machines. They use adjustable vibration to index components to the pick position, with variants for legacy CP and mid-range SM series machines. Below is a complete guide in English.
Core Design & Working Principle
Type: Vibratory stick feeder (electromagnetic vibration drive) — uses AC voltage to generate controlled vibration, moving components along the track to the pick point.
Key Mechanism:
Adjustable amplitude/frequency for stable feeding of different component sizes (e.g., resistors, capacitors, small ICs).
Mechanical guides and end stops to align sticks/tubes; some models have cover tape peelers for sealed sticks.
Basic sensing (limit switches) for component presence and feed completion; no smart machine communication.
