Notes

• Picks SMT electronic components off of rails and places them on circuitboards automatically.
• Used when populating medium to large quantities of identical circuits
• Boots & Moves and was working when donated, but is complicated and has not yet been used by Protospace.
• Is somewhat tedious to program, best for large production runs
• Is old, probably not accurate for smallest modern form factor surface mount components

Repair Notes

• Requires dried air supply. Circuithacker has built a compressor for it.
