MCLEDV6 LED Pick & Place

MCLEDV6 LED Pick & Place

MCLEDV6 LED Pick & Place

High-speed LED placement for large-batch production and long board assemblies.

The MCLEDV6 is a dedicated LED pick and place system designed for high-volume production of LED strips, tube boards, and other long-format assemblies. It delivers placement speeds up to 30,000 LEDs per hour while supporting board lengths up to 1200 mm (47.2").

  • Up to 30,000 LEDs per hour: optimized for high-speed LED production
  • Long board capability: handles PCBs up to 1200 mm (47.2")
  • Dedicated LED system: ideal for strips, tube boards, and large-batch runs
  • On-the-fly vision alignment: captures and aligns components during motion for precise placement

The advanced vision system captures and processes component alignment in motion over a stationary camera, ensuring fast, accurate LED placement on every cycle while maintaining consistent production quality.

High-Speed, High-Efficiency Design

The MCLEDV6 delivers placement speeds up to 30,000 LEDs per hour using a 6-head linear gantry system designed for high-volume LED production.

  • Up to 30,000 LEDs per hour: optimized for large-batch LED assembly
  • 6-head placement system: simultaneous multi-part pick-up for maximum throughput
  • Fly-over alignment: aligns components while the head is in motion
  • Optimized feeder layout: reduces head travel and tool changes

The upward-looking camera enables true on-the-fly alignment, ensuring fast, accurate placement without slowing production.

Purpose-Built for LED Assembly

The MCLEDV6 is engineered specifically for LED production, delivering optimized performance for LED boards rather than adapting a general-purpose platform.

  • Designed for LED production: optimized for strips, panels, and lighting assemblies
  • Wide LED range: supports 0402 up to 20 × 18 mm components
  • Positive air pressure heads: ensures reliable release of adhesive-prone LEDs
  • Specialized nozzles: Teflon®-coated and custom designs for sensitive components

Custom nozzle designs prevent contact with LED lenses during pick-up, preserving component integrity and ensuring consistent placement quality.

Versatile Solutions for All LED Lighting Products

The MCLEDV6 supports a wide range of LED applications, including strips, bulb boards, and irregular panel designs, all with high speed and precision.

  • Handles diverse applications: flexible strips, circular boards, and irregular panels
  • Single-pass assembly: completes full board length in one cycle
  • Long board support: optimized for extended LED assemblies
  • Flexible configuration: worktable or SMEMA inline conveyor available

The ability to assemble full-length boards in a single pass maximizes throughput and improves production efficiency.

Streamlined Software for Smarter LED Production

The MCLEDV6 uses intuitive software designed to simplify programming and maximize production efficiency for LED assemblies.

  • 3-point LED programming: automatically calculates remaining placements
  • UCAD® import: simplifies setup with CAD file integration
  • Feeder optimization: minimizes head movement and tool changes
  • Real-time monitoring: tracks placement rates, cycle times, and output

Built-in traceability and real-time monitoring provide full visibility into production performance, ensuring consistent results and process control.

Continuous Production Without Downtime

The MCLEDV6 is designed for uninterrupted production, allowing operators to maintain output without stopping the machine.

  • Automatic feeder switching: switches to backup feeders when reels run out
  • Up to 16 servo-driven feeders: supports continuous high-volume production
  • Brushless motors: ensure long service life in 24/7 environments
  • Tape splicing support: enables seamless reel changes without interruption

Automatic feeder switching and tape splicing minimize downtime, ensuring continuous operation and maximum throughput.
