Main technical features of used pick-and-place machines

Placement speed

Placement speed is measured in components per hour (CPH) and directly impacts overall line productivity. High-speed chip shooters can exceed 100,000 CPH for small passive components, while flexible platforms prioritize component diversity alongside solid throughput.

Placement accuracy

Modern SMT placement systems achieve accuracy levels down to ±20 microns, ensuring precise component positioning, consistent solder joint quality, and reduced rework or scrap.

Feeder capacity

Feeder capacity determines how many component reels, trays, or sticks can be loaded simultaneously. Higher feeder counts reduce downtime, minimize manual intervention, and improve line efficiency.

Component range

Used pick-and-place machines support a wide spectrum of components, from 0201-size passives to large BGAs, QFNs, connectors, and odd-shaped parts, making them suitable for both simple and complex PCB designs.

Vision systems

High-resolution vision cameras and laser alignment systems ensure accurate component recognition, polarity detection, and placement verification even at high speeds.

Software and control

Advanced software platforms simplify programming, optimize placement sequences, and allow integration with SPI, AOI, and MES systems for complete SMT line control.

Changeover efficiency

Quick feeder replacement, offline programming, and software-assisted setup significantly reduce changeover times, which is essential for high-mix or short-run production environments.

Types of pick-and-place machines

  • High-speed chip shooters – Optimized for placing small passive components at extremely high speed in mass production environments.
  • Flexible placement machines – Designed to handle a wide range of component sizes and shapes, ideal for mixed or complex assemblies.
  • Hybrid machines – Combine high-speed placement with flexibility, offering balanced performance within a single platform.
  • Multi-function systems – Some advanced models integrate inspection or verification capabilities for fully automated inline production.

  • Mycronic MY Series – Optimized for prototyping and low-to-medium volume production.
  • Hanwha (Samsung Techwin) – High-speed, high-precision machines for large-scale electronics manufacturing.

Industries and applications

  • Consumer electronics – Smartphones, tablets, computers, and wearable devices.
  • Automotive – Control units, infotainment systems, and safety electronics.
  • Telecommunications – Networking hardware, 5G infrastructure, and data communication systems.
  • Aerospace and defense – High-reliability PCB assemblies for mission-critical applications.
  • Medical devices – Diagnostic equipment, monitoring systems, and implantable electronics.
  • Industrial electronics – Controllers, sensors, automation systems, and IoT devices.

Pricing and cost factors for pick-and-place machines

  • Brand and series (Yamaha, Juki, Panasonic, ASM, Fuji, etc.)
  • Placement speed, accuracy, and gantry configuration
  • Feeder quantity and compatibility
  • Machine age, condition, and software version
  • Maintenance, calibration records, and spare parts availability
  • Integration with conveyors and inline SMT equipment

On Exapro, entry-level used pick-and-place machines typically start around €20,000, while advanced multi-gantry systems with extensive feeder setups and high throughput can exceed €200,000.

How to select the right pick-and-place machine

Define production needs

High-volume production environments benefit from chip shooters, while prototyping and mixed assemblies require flexible or hybrid systems.

Check feeder compatibility

Ensure the machine supports your component formats, sizes, and packaging types such as tape, tray, or stick feeders.

Inspect vision and alignment systems

Accurate vision systems are critical for consistent placement quality and defect reduction.

Consider changeover requirements

Frequent product changes demand fast and efficient setup to minimize downtime.

Verify machine condition

Review maintenance logs, calibration status, remaining service life, and availability of spare parts.

Consult experts

Exapro’s specialists can help you select the most suitable pick-and-place machine based on throughput, footprint, production mix, and budget.
