Become a pick-and-place pro, piece by piece!

This course deals with the production of SMD assemblies with the help of a pick-and-place machine. You will learn the basics of different SMD packages, component handling (MSL level and ESD protection), solder paste printing, reflow soldering and the programming and proper use of our Essemtec pick-and-place machine. After successful participation in the course, you will be able to independently produce prototypes of complex electronic assemblies or small batch series.

You should have a basic knowledge of electrical engineering and PCB design.

Maximum PCB size: 406 x 305 mm.

Successful participation in the course is the prerequisite for using the Essemtec Fox pick-and-place machine independently at MakerSpace.
