How SMT Placement Equipment Monitors Component Throwing
For SMT electronics factories, effectively monitoring component consumption, throwing, and statistical analysis during production is a critical challenge. RockPlus RejectMonitor is a component throwing analysis and monitoring tool for SMT placement equipment, supporting ASM, Panasonic, GSM, Fuji, JUKI, and other common placement machines. While OEM throwing analysis software only supports specific brands, Hegong Software''s RockPlus RejectMonitor integrates different brands into a unified management platform.
The real-time monitoring module monitors current production equipment throwing data. When throwing reaches configured thresholds, it triggers audible and visual alarms. Combined with the machine stop module, it can halt equipment when alarm levels are reached, minimizing throwing-related losses. The historical data module uses big data storage technology to permanently retain all throwing data for anytime analysis.
The software connects to placement machines in real-time to read throwing information, aggregating and displaying it by time, station, and component across multiple dimensions, enabling engineers to monitor throwing conditions in real-time. For common materials, a fixed threshold like 1% can trigger alarms. For high-value materials like chips, immediate alarms upon a single component throw require operator recovery and reuse. The system supports per-part-number throwing monitoring with immediate alarms and rail locking to force machine stop, minimizing losses.
