Board Handling
Track MT 60 – Board Handling Modules
MIMOT board conveyor modules are used to interconnect several SMT placement machines and/or additional equipment to create an in-line production line.
The modules are used as in-feed-, link- or out-feed-stations and feature programmable belt speed as well as check and stop functions.
More Information
Je nach Anforderung können verschiedene Kombinationen beliebig zusammengestellt werden. Die Bedienung und Konfiguration erfolgt über den Bestückungsautomaten.
Um eine Verbindung mit anderen Einheiten einer Produktionslinie zu ermöglichen, sind die MT-Module mit einer SMEMA-Schnittstelle ausgestattet.
Die Breitenverstellung für Einlaufbänder erfolgt zusammen mit dem Bestückwagen des Bestückungsautomaten (motorisch, als Standard mittels manueller Eingabe, bzw. optional automatisch via Software über das Bestückungsprogramm).
Zusätzlich kann als Erweiterung eines MIMOT Track MT 150 E/A oder eines MIMOT Track MT 180 E/A ein Inspektionsplatz montiert werden. Er ermöglicht die manuelle In-Line-Prüfung von Leiterplatten im Verlaufe des Transportes von einer Station zur Nächsten.
Mit dieser Option wird ein MIMOT Track MT 60-Modul wie folgt erweitert:
- Ergonomisch konstruierte Arbeitsfläche mit Armauflagen für ermüdungsfreies Arbeiten
- Ablagemöglichkeit für Kontrollhilfsmittel in optimaler Arbeitshöhe
- Lupenleuchte
- Ausleuchtung der Arbeitsflächen
- Programmierbarer Kontrollstep des Leiterplatten-Transportes
Magazine Lifts
The loader magazine lift automatically takes the boards out of the magazine and provides them to the next segment via a conveying belt. The integration of the board extractor into the conveying belt module brings enormous space savings. Magazines can be exchanged quickly and comfortably.
The unloader magazine lift automatically takes the boards from an out-feed belt and stores them in a magazine. The integration of the board pusher into the conveying belt module brings enormous space savings. Magazines can be exchanged quickly and comfortably. Due to the pusher-design, no magazine clearance slots are required below the board.
The magazine lifts can even be operated in reversal mode. Using a combined in-feed/out-feed belt segment, boards can be taken out of a magazine slot for placement operation and after assembly they get pushed back into the magazine via the same belt segment.
Magazine Lift TWIN
The MIMOT board magazine lift TWIN can be operated either as loader or as unloader or for bidirectional loading/unloading from one end of the line.
Due to its high loading and unloading capacity it is perfectly suited for lightly-manned shifts or if pass and fail boards are to be separated automatically.
Destacking Unit
The MIMOT board destacking unit is designed to add to MIMOT board magazine lifts. This unit permits loading of an assembly line with stacked boards. Using the MIMOT board destacking unit customers can automate the expensive and time consuming task of manually separating piled-up boards.
Can be combined with standard and TWIN loaders. The destacking unit doesn’t require extra footprint.
Rotation Station
The MIMOT board rotation station allows for changing the transport direction e.g. by 90 degrees. Key benefits are improved area utilization, better overview over the entire line and increased efficiency through minimized legwork.
Combining two assembly lines into one reflow oven or separating PASS/FAIL boards after an AOI inspection are just a few possible applications of the rotation station.
Buffer Station
The MIMOT board buffer station provides temporary first-in first-out (FIFO) storage of boards within a production line.
To ensure communication with SMT placement machines the magazine lifts are equipped with SMEMA interfaces.
Feeder
Triligent Tape Feeder
The TRILIGENT tape feeder ensures simple setup change. You can insert the mounted feeder(s) into any slot while the machine is running. The machine recognizes the feeder, the mounted component and the position.
Repetitive errors are virtually ruled out as feeder and components are coded.
Mehr Information
Tape feeders are available for all common tape widths (8 to 88 mm) and reel sizes. In addition, special editions of tape feeders are available for components up to 12 mm height (deep blister pockets).
Following versions are supplied as standard:
- TRILIGENT tape feeder 8 mm, d = 380 mm
- TRILIGENT tape feeder 12 mm, d = 380 mm
- TRILIGENT tape feeder 16 mm, d = 380 mm
- TRILIGENT tape feeder 16 mm, d = 380 mm (for deep blister pockets)
- TRILIGENT tape feeder 24 mm, d = 380 mm
- TRILIGENT tape feeder 24 mm, d = 380 mm (for deep blister pockets)
- TRILIGENT tape feeder 32 mm, d = 380 mm

- TRILIGENT tape feeder 56 mm, d = 380 mm
- TRILIGENT tape feeder 72 mm, d = 380 mm
- TRILIGENT tape feeder 88 mm, d = 380 mm
Triligent Vibration Feeder
At the TRILIGENT vibration feeder V8 the components are vibration-forwarded within the exchange bar to reach the pick position. At the TRILIGENT vibration feeder V32 the components are vibration-forwarded onto the presentation plate where they reach the pick position. At the V24 size both concepts are possible.
More Information
The following feeder versions can be supplied:
- TRILIGENT vibration feeder V8
- TRILIGENT vibration feeder V24
- TRILIGENT vibration feeder V32
Triligent Label Feeder
The TRILIGENT label feeder provides automated labeling of boards, sub-panels or components (e.g. EPROMs) by the placement machine. Among the wide range of possible applications for this feeder type are e.g. placement of labels to cover vias during the soldering process or attachment of ID labels on boards and components.
More Information
The labels (barcode, Data Matrix, etc.) are fed on a carrier tape like taped components.
Vacuum nozzles are used for placement. Presence and position of the label is checked and aligned by the vision system to ensure precise, repeatable attachment on the board.
Setup procedure is exactly the same as for standard feeders. The placement machine automatically recognizes the slot where the label feeder is inserted.
Feeder Cart
The MIMOT feeder cart is used for proper, careful and clear storage of MIMOT feeders. Special feeder carts are available for the innovative TR feeders with their continuous data connection to the MIMOT prep software and the placement machines.
Whether feeders are inserted in placement machines or are stored in feeder carts, operators can use the Prep PC or the screen of the placement machine to see, where individual feeders are located and what components are mounted on.
What’s more, the various indication possibilities of the triple LED on each feeder remain active when the feeder is stored at the feeder cart. When searches are run, the feeder will respond by flashing the according LED – even when stored at the feeder cart.
Setting up the machine is optimally supported per software: The LED of the feeder to be inserted flashes – the LED of the target slot of the machine flashes – even if the feeder is stored at the feeder cart. Fast and optimized. It’s that simple!
More Information
The following types of feeder carts are available:
- TR feeder cart “master” containing one level of approx. 1 x 72 “S8” feeder slots
- TR feeder cart “master” containing two levels of approx. 2 x 72 “S8” feeder slots
- TR feeder cart “slave” containing one level of approx. 1 x 72 “S8” feeder slots
- TR feeder cart “slave” containing two levels of approx. 2 x 72 “S8” feeder slots

- Feeder cart “master” containing three levels of approx. 3 x 64 “S8” feeder slots
Feeder Mounting – Feeder Jig
The special feeder jig for TRILIGENT feeders significantly facilitates component mounting and adjustment of the feed unit of TRILIGENT tape feeders.
After the feeder is inserted into the jig the operator has both hands free to conveniently mount the reel or the stick on the feeder. The inclination of the jig can be adjusted continuously.
The integrated power supply enables simple mounting and dismantling of feeders.
Feeder Setup – Setup Station
Ergonomic workplace for typical setup operations like data entry, component storage, mounting and dismantling of feeders, optimization of placement programs.
