The 3D hybrid mounters S10 and S20 that flexibly support various types of production in one unit, which enables mounting on irregular surfaces, sloped surfaces, and curved surfaces, goes on sale
The S10 and S20 were developed with the concept of a “manufacturing center” with which mounting, dispensing, and inspection can all be performed in one unit. With their excellent component mounting speed and accuracy, flexibility for mounting ultra small chips to large components, and a head that combines a mounting head and a dispensing head, the S10 and S20 were the culmination of our relentless pursuit for the next level. They feature the highest level of flexibility, which allows “hybrid mounting,” or alternately performing dispensing and mounting components.
