L-NP Series Benchtop Pick and Place System
The NovaPlace™ L-NP Series is an entry level, low-cost turnkey automatic pick and place system that can be put in production right out of the box. Once a specific PCB is programmed, the machine automatically picks up each component from its designated feeder or tray, centers the part and moves to the placement location, and accurately places the part. The feeders automatically position the next component for pick-up. It is easy to set up, easy to program, and easy to use with Windows™-based software. See Specifications tab below for details on each model.
