New manual mode for Fuji’s smart factory platform

EMP 2021 Electronics Manufacturing & Production Handbook Manufacturing / Production Technology, Hardware & Services

Fuji Europe has introduced a manual mode as the first step in the development of its NXTR, a smart factory platform for step-by-step automation and digitalisation in electronics manufacturing.

Solutions for automated, efficient workflows – especially for repetitive tasks – are a significant element of Industry 4.0. NXTR aims at the optimisation of production preparation and maintenance processes as well as the automation of manual assembly processes for networking and self-optimised production. The manual mode focuses on the optimisation of feeders already in use and is the basis for the best possible throughput.

The manual mode is based on new multi-feeder units, which facilitate and optimise the feeder operation. By using the feeders that are currently already in use by Fuji customers, there is no need to change the feeder generation, which results in a high savings potential. This is made possible by the new MFU-47 and MFU-52 multi-feeder units, which allow for the simultaneous pick-up of two components and thus achieve optimum throughput.
