The Topaz-XII provides a perfect balance between chip and IC
shooting thanks to its high precision single placement beam with eight
independent controlled heads. The Topaz-XII is available in two
versions. When many nozzle changes are needed and high output is important,
the Flying Nozzle Change (FNC) head is recommended. For handling a wider
component range including QFP, connectors and high components, the Super
Fine head is ideal.
The high-precision single placement beam carries either four FNC heads
(each with three nozzles) and four standard heads or eight Super Fine heads
with exchangeable nozzles. The FNC heads exchange nozzles on the fly to
increase overall machine efficiency.
With placement rates up to 20k components per hour, the
Topaz-XII is fast. Placement accuracy is 35 microns for ICs. It
handles components ranging from 01005 to large connectors (45 x 100 mm),
fine-pitch and components up to 15 mm tall. The Topaz-XII holds
up to 90 tape feeders, including stick and bulk parts.
