Three key points of the LX-8

Application examples.

What JUKI recommends placing with the LX-8, by head.

  • The LX-8's TAKUMI head over a board, with the laser on
    High-mix, short runs. With two TAKUMI heads and up to 160 feeders, the line changes over quickly.9
  • The LX-8's P20S head over a board
    High-density small chips. With two P20S heads, from 0201 chips up and at top speed.10
  • Coming soon
    LED indicators. The P20S recognizes each LED reliably, even in continuous placement.11
  • The LX-8's TAKUMI head over the feeder bank, with the red laser light
    SOP, QFP and BGA. The laser recognizes them from 03015 to □50 mm, regardless of lead shape or brightness.12
  • IC tray in the JUKI TR8 tray server
    Connectors and heavy parts. With the TR8SR tray server, the head picks them directly from the tray.13
  • Coming soon
    Inline with an RX-8. JUKI proposes the pair for a fast, general-purpose line.14

Notes

  1. Two heads to choose from: the high-speed P20S and the versatile TAKUMI; the LX-8's fusion concept. JUKI LX-8 brochure, p. 3, 4, 5 and 8.
  2. 105,000 CPH under optimum conditions with two P20S heads (“It boasts the highest 105,000CPH in its class”, JUKI LX-8 Catalog in English, p. 1); 99,500 with P20S and TAKUMI; 94,000 with two TAKUMI. Per IPC 9850: 65,000, 63,500 and 62,000 CPH. JUKI LX-8 brochure, p. 3 and 10; JUKI LX-8 brochure (English, rev. 4), p. 6; datasheet, p. 6 and 11.
  3. 160 feeders with two TAKUMI (148 with P20S and TAKUMI; 136 with two P20S), using 8 mm RF08AS feeders; the next job can be set up in advance on the bank, so changeover is shorter. JUKI LX-8 brochure, p. 4 and 10; datasheet, p. 9.
  4. P20S planetary head: 20 nozzles picking nonstop, with stable vacuum even on 0201 parts, and the head at a height of 0.5, 2 or 3 mm depending on the part. Parts up to 3 mm high. JUKI LX-8 brochure, p. 3 and 10; datasheet, p. 6 and 9. Video: JUKI, “LX-8 Productivity”, 0:32-0:38.
