Installing the Proper Tips

This topic describes how to identify the appropriate probe tip for your application. Different-sized devices may require a different-sized probe tip. For the most-reliable performance, use "Quad Tips" with the largest nozzle/rubber cup outer diameter (O.D.) possible for the target device, as this creates optimal vacuum suction and ‘blow-off’ when picking and placing devices. The Probe mounts directly to the pick-and-place (PnP) head.

The following illustration shows the basic components of a probe assembly on a PSV2800 PnP head.

Identifying the Appropriate Tip Assembly

  • Select the largest Nozzle/Rubber Cup for your device, based on outer diameter. The nozzle is the part that physically contacts the device package.

    The following table lists the available nozzles along with their corresponding part numbers.

    Tip Outer Diameter (mm)

    Part Number

    Nozzle

    1.5

    646-0198-001

    Vacuum, Cup, 1.5mm OD, PSV

    3.0

    288-0052-001

    Vacuum, Cup, 3.0mm OD, PSV

    6.3

    288-0051-001

    Vacuum, Cup, 6.3mm OD, PSV

    11.0

    288-0050-001

    Vacuum, Cup, 11.0mm OD, PSV

    Note Note

    Nozzles/Rubber cups are consumable parts, which deteriorate over time/from usage. Replace a nozzle if it has cracks or is unable to hold vacuum suction pressure.
