Product Description

Vertical PCB Buffer Machine With Intelligent Intermediate Storage

The HS-IS460 is a vertical PCB buffer built around intelligent intermediate storage: it holds inspected boards in a controlled magazine, releases them on demand, and keeps the SMT line balancing itself between AOI, SPI and downstream stations. Instead of losing output every time an inspection station pauses, the buffer absorbs the difference and feeds boards back at line speed.

Why Intelligent Intermediate Storage Matters

  • No line stoppage on inspection — boards queue inside the buffer instead of piling up on the conveyor.
  • Automatic balance of cycle time — the unit stores boards when the upstream station runs faster and releases them when it slows down.
  • Controlled board handling — smooth indexing and gentle pitch selection protect thin boards down to 0.4 mm.
  • Operator visibility — storage level, running mode and alarms are readable from the touch screen, so the level of stock is never a guess.
  • Simple integration — standard SMEMA handshake connects to AOI, SPI, reflow and pick-and-place equipment in minutes.

How the Storage Cycle Works

  1. The upstream machine sends the SMEMA "board available" signal.
  2. The conveyor indexes the PCB into the next free magazine slot at the selected pitch.
  3. The board is parked without contact damage and counted as stored stock.
  4. When the downstream station is ready, the platform lifts and returns the board in FIFO or LIFO sequence, or passes it straight through in by-pass mode.

Application Scenarios

  • Between SPI/AOI and reflow — holds inspected boards while the oven or mounter finishes the previous batch.
  • High-mix low-volume runs — quick pitch and width changeover when board size changes each shift.
  • Manual re-inspection and repair — boards are stored instead of being stacked on tables, and come back at line speed.
  • Testing stations — absorbs the longer cycle of ICT/FCT stations without slowing the whole line.

Service and Delivery

CE certified and shipped in a wooden export case. Standard delivery is 7 to 10 working days; a 1-year warranty and remote technical support are included. Custom storage capacity, dual-lane configuration and automatic width adjustment are available on request.

Send us your board size, line layout and inspection cycle time and we will confirm the storage capacity that keeps your AOI and SPI stations flowing.
