  • Patent number: 11956901
    Abstract: A holding and drive device including a frame; a rotation structure which is attached to the frame in such a manner that it can rotate around a rotation axis; a rotation drive for rotating the rotation structure around the rotation axis; and a rotation structure interface attached to or formed on the rotation structure, to which a tool device including a plurality of sleeves can be detachably attached, which are configured for the detachable attachment of a respective component holding device protruding from the rotation axis with a radial direction component or of another tool element. A corresponding tool device, a corresponding supplementary tool device, and a component handling device constructed from these components.

  • Publication number: 20210400857
    Abstract: A placement head for automatically placing electronic components on a component carrier. The placement head has a chassis; a first rotor assembly that is mounted so that it is rotatable relative to the chassis about a first axis of rotation and that has a first quantity of first handling devices; and a second rotor assembly that is mounted so that it is rotatable relative to the chassis about a second axis of rotation and that has a second quantity of second handling devices. Each handling device includes a sleeve to which a component holding device for temporarily picking up a component can be attached, and a drive device with a linear drive for moving the sleeve along its longitudinal axis, and a rotary drive for rotating the sleeve about its longitudinal axis. Furthermore, a placement machine with such a placement head and a method for automatic assembly of a component carrier using such a placement head.

  • Patent number: 11088013
    Abstract: A device for transferring chips from a wafer to a placement head of an automatic placement machine. The device includes a removal tool rotatable about a first axis of rotation (i) for the removing of singulated chips from the wafer, (ii) for turning the chips to provide them as FCOB chips at a first collection position, and (iii) for transferring, at a common transfer position, the chips to a turning tool rotatable about a second axis of rotation; and the rotatable turning tool (i) for receiving of chips from the removal tool, and (ii) for again turning the received chips, in order to provide them as COB chips at a second collection position. The removal tool has a plurality of first grippers, which are arranged protruding radially from the first axis of rotation in a first plane. The turning tool has a plurality of second grippers, which are arranged radially protruding from the second axis of rotation in a second plane.

  • Patent number: 7330773
    Abstract: The invention relates to a multiple insertion head for mounting components onto substrates, the insertion head including a carrier which is arranged in such a way that it can rotate about a rotational axis and is provided with many receiving tools that are arranged in such a way that they can be displaced in a mounting direction at an angle to the rotational axis, the receiving tools being used to receive the components. Each receiving tool is provided with at least one active drive and/or sensor, ensuring that the components are rapidly positioned with the highest precision.
