Single Module Pick-and-Place



The HP 140 Pick-and-Place series from Weiss North America, Inc. now features integration of a horizontal and a vertical linear axis in a single module that can move directly to all points along these two axes. The dynamic linear motor drives are user-programmable in the Y and X direction.

"Configured in a compact, robust design, the series offers new possibilities for market applications such as automotive supply, cleanroom, assembly technology, batteries, switches/sockets and packaging," said a company spokesperson. "Whereas pneumatic systems traditionally require the purchase, set-up and commission of two separate axes, the HP series overcomes these limitations by offering an integrated, preconfigured turnkey system. These key advantages, in terms of variability and cost-effectiveness, are augmented by the dynamic performance of the HP 140T Pick-and-Place units - offering fast acceleration of up to 40 m/sec2 and repeat accuracy of 0.01 mm."

Additional features of the HP 140T include a control system and automated lubrication concept. Complex commissioning and parameter setting procedures of standard commercial handling systems are also streamlined with the Weiss Application Software (WAS). Designed for fast and secure commissioning of all freely programmable Weiss components, WAS features an intuitive and uniform graphic user interface. Interface compatibilities include Profi-Bus, CANopen, DeviceNet, RS-232 or Ethernet.

The HP 140 series includes:

  • HP 140T: Up to 100 mm vertical stroke and up to 400 mm horizontal stroke
  • HP 140T CLG: Certified to air purity class 6 in line with ISO 14644-1.
