RS-485 communication interface (some models), support remote monitoring and parameter adjustment.
4. Working Principle
Power transmission: The main control system of the placement machine sends a pulse signal to drive the stepper motor inside the feeder to rotate.
Material belt advancement: The motor drives the feeding ratchet through the gear set, and each rotation of a fixed angle (such as 7.5°) pushes the material belt forward by one step (usually 4mm).
Position detection:
The Hall sensor detects the position of the ratchet to ensure that the material is in place.
The photoelectric sensor detects the hole position of the material belt to determine whether there is a shortage of material or a jam.
Feedback control: The sensor signal returns to the placement machine to form a closed-loop control to ensure the feeding accuracy.
Component exposure: When the material belt is in place, the peeling mechanism slightly lifts the covering film to make the component in an absorbable state.
5. Core functions
Dual-channel synchronous feeding: Two 8mm material belts are supplied at the same time to improve the placement efficiency.
Automatic deviation correction: Detect the feeding deviation and automatically adjust it to reduce the throwing rate.
Material shortage warning: When there are 5 to 10 components left on the material belt, an alarm is issued to prompt the operator to change the material.
Anti-stuck material protection: Automatically shut down when abnormal material belt (such as twisting, breaking) is detected.
Data recording: Stores operation data such as feeding times and alarm records for easy traceability and analysis.
VI. Role in SMT production line
Improve production efficiency: The double-belt design reduces the frequency of material changes and is suitable for mass production.
Ensure mounting accuracy: High-precision feeding ensures accurate component position and reduces the risk of patch offset.
Reduce downtime: The intelligent detection system warns of faults in advance and reduces production line interruptions.
Compatible with a variety of components: Suitable for a variety of SMD components such as resistors, capacitors, and ICs.

Check fasteners: Make sure all screws and connectors are not loose.
2. Regular maintenance (every 3 months or 5 million feedings)
Disassembly and cleaning: Remove internal dust and check the wear of gears and ratchets.
Replace wearing parts: such as feeding ratchets, pressure springs, etc.
Sensor calibration: Use standard material belts to test whether the sensor response is normal.
Motor detection: Measure current (normal value 0.5~1.2A) and check carbon brush wear.
