1. Development Stages in China
Since the 1980s, pick-and-place machines in China have undergone three generations of evolution, moving toward higher integration, efficiency, precision, and intelligence.
The current market is dominated by two types: high-speed machines and multifunctional machines, with no successful integration of both.
2. Key Technical Challenges
Balancing speed and precision remains the core bottleneck.
Structural, process, and technological gaps persist; multifunctional high-speed integration has not yet been achieved.
Intellectual property limitations and reliance on imported technologies remain major constraints.
3. Future Technology Trends
The rise of advanced packaging technologies (e.g., BGA, PoP, CSP) demands higher placement precision and flexibility.
Key directions include modular architecture, dual-lane conveyors, multi-head systems, and flying vision.
Machines that combine high speed, precision, multifunctionality, and intelligence will become the mainstream.
4. Industry Development Recommendations
Enhance independent R&D to break through core technologies.
Promote the integration of speed and versatility to meet small-batch, high-mix manufacturing needs.
Align with international standards and trends to boost global competitiveness of domestic equipment.
