DIY Pick and Place Machine

 

If you have ever worked with SMD parts using tweezers gets old fast. Even the small vacuum pencils are not great. Vassilis Papanikolaou sent in the details of his solution. It uses a base that is similar to a CNC machine without the electronics. With this setup it is much easier to precisely align the parts, I am thinking that a version 2 could include mounting some motors to the system and giving it some automation.
