Three key points

Application examples.

What Robotas recommends assembling with the MASCOT.

  • An operator assembling a board on the MASCOT
    High-mix, short runs. For manufacturers that build many different boards in small or medium batches.7
  • Inserting a component into the board
    Insertion and special parts. Through-hole components, odd-form parts, inspection and rework.8
  • Picking the component from the carousel
    Without leaving the station. The operator alerts the warehouse when material runs out.9
  • Coming soon
    Several MASCOTs inline. With Pushtrack, each station places its share and the board moves on to the next.10
  • Coming soon
    On your line. Adapts to the motorized lines you already have.11
  • Coming soon
    Leads bent before soldering. Optionally, with Clinch: bends the leads under the board, from 35° to 85°.13
  • Coming soon
    Every step, checked. Optionally, with Verify: a 20 MP camera checks that the part is there, with the right polarity.14

Notes

  1. The MASCOT ensures that the correct component is placed in the right position with the correct orientation: MASCOT brochure, p. 2.
  2. A laser shows the exact position of the component and its orientation; polarity, at one corner of the component (p. 2). Sealed Class 2 laser (IEC 60825-1:2006), eye-safe: MASCOT brochure, p. 6.
  3. Up to four carousels per MASCOT, with up to 50 compartments each: up to 200 (p. 4 and 6). Carousel rotation in under 2 s: MASCOT brochure, p. 6.
  4. 750 to 1,200 components per hour: MASCOT brochure, p. 6.
  5. On-screen instructions with information, images and videos for each component; the motorized carousel delivers the next component at the right moment: MASCOT brochure, p. 2.
  6. Step-by-step programming, with automatic imaging and drag and drop; the optional PRO COMPILER software creates almost all programs in minutes from CAD data and the BOM: MASCOT brochure, p. 3.
  7. Designed for companies that build many different boards in small or medium batches: MASCOT brochure, p. 2.
  8. Flexibility for “through-hole & odd” insertions, inspection and rework: MASCOT brochure, p. 2.
  9. Operators flag when they run out of material, and the alert reaches the warehouse: MASCOT brochure, p. 2.
  10. MASCOT Pushtrack: inline, with a non-motorized rail up to 500 mm wide; each MASCOT places the parts held in its compartments: MASCOT brochure, p. 5; Robotas 2025 catalog, p. 8.
  11. MASCOT Custom: adapts to existing motorized lines (Flexlink, Nutek, Promass, PMJ…): MASCOT brochure, p. 6. MASCOT Retrofit: Robotas 2025 catalog, p. 12.
