Summary of the working principle and cleaning methods of the suction nozzle of the surface mount technology (SMT) machin

The suction nozzle of the SMT placement machine is one of the components and also a very crucial part. When the placement machine is running at high speed, the suction nozzle also performs rapid placement. So, what is the working principle of the suction nozzle? And how to clean the suction nozzle of the surface mount technology (SMT) machine? Let me give you a brief introduction

The suction nozzle of the surface mount technology (SMT) machine is not only a key component for the machine to perform the placement and placement actions on the components it sucks, but also serves as the background for the camera of the optical vision system to take pictures. It mainly utilizes the adsorption effect of vacuum to suck the components, and uses air blowing to place the components adsorbed on the suction nozzle at the coordinate positions on the circuit board.

In fact, a tiny surface mount technology (SMT) machine nozzle is fully equipped. It consists of three major parts: the nozzle head, the filter screen, and the sealing ring. Its key function is to mount components. When our mount nozzle starts to work, it will take advantage of its ductility to carry out air extraction, removing all the gas to achieve a vacuum effect. Then adsorb the vital components.

Then, when we want to carry out the mounting process, we will use the gas just extracted to create a high-pressure mounting platform on the PCB board, and use the high pressure to mount the components onto the PCB circuit board.

Surface mount technology (SMT) machine suction nozzle
The suction nozzles of surface mount technology (SMT) machines are usually cleaned by dedicated cleaning equipment, namely fully automatic suction nozzle cleaning machines. The fully automatic nozzle cleaning machine adopts a high-pressure water mist cleaning mode, which can easily remove the dirt adhering to the surface of the nozzle of the surface mount technology (SMT) machine. The entire process only requires pure water and no other chemical solvents.
