GAM-380AT In-Line Gripper PCB Bottom Depaneling System

Description

The GAM-380AT In-Line Gripper PCB Bottom Depaneling System performs high-precision, fixture-free depaneling in fully automated SMT environments.
By cutting from the bottom and holding the board securely with grippers, the system is especially suitable for PCBAs with tall or densely populated top-side components, minimizing mechanical stress and eliminating fixture limitations.

Fixture-Free Bottom Depaneling

Eliminates the need for jigs by using gripper-based bottom cutting, enabling faster changeovers and greater flexibility across PCB designs.

Vision-Guided Cutting Accuracy

CCD vision alignment automatically compensates for panel deviation, ensuring precise and repeatable cuts in continuous in-line production.

Safe Handling for High-Component PCBAs

Designed specifically for assemblies with tall or dense top-side components, minimizing mechanical stress and preventing component damage.

Flexible In-Line Integration

Supports 0–180° adjustable outfeed orientation and multiple loading/unloading methods, allowing seamless connection with downstream SMT equipment.

Integrated ESD & Dust Protection

An ESD-safe automatic tool changer combined with high-efficiency dust extraction protects sensitive electronics and maintains a clean workspace.

Smart Control & Process Monitoring

Advanced software functions monitor tool life, spindle performance, and maintenance status, improving stability and reducing unplanned downtime.

Optional Configurations

To meet diverse production needs, the GAM-380AT can be customized with:

• Fixed-pitch or variable-pitch gripper jaws

• Barcode reading for traceability

• Milling tool diameter detection

• Customized MES connectivity for smart factory integration

Proven in Global Manufacturing

Manufacturers worldwide trust the GAM-380AT for reliable, long-term operation in industries such as consumer electronics, automotive electronics, and industrial control.

Q1: What makes bottom depaneling suitable for high-component PCBAs?

Bottom depaneling avoids direct contact with top-side components. Combined with gripper holding, it significantly reduces mechanical stress and prevents damage to tall or sensitive components.

Q2: Is a fixture required for different PCB sizes?

The GAM-380AT operates fixture-free by design. The system handles PCB size changes through gripper adjustment and software settings, reducing setup time.

Q3: Can this machine be integrated into an existing SMT line?

Yes. The system supports multiple feeding and outfeed configurations and adjustable orientation, allowing smooth integration with upstream and downstream equipment.

Q4: How does the CCD vision system improve cutting accuracy?

The CCD system detects panel position and compensates for offset before cutting, ensuring consistent accuracy even during high-speed, continuous operation.

Q5: How is ESD managed during the depaneling process?

An ESD-safe automatic tool changer actively dissipates static electricity generated during routing, protecting sensitive electronic components.

Q6: What kind of maintenance does the machine require?

The software monitors tool wear, spindle operation, and dust collection status, providing maintenance alerts to help prevent unexpected downtime.

Q7: Is MES or barcode tracking supported?

Yes. Barcode reading and customized MES integration are available as optional features for traceability and smart factory applications.

Q8: What industries commonly use this machine?

Manufacturers widely use the GAM-380AT in consumer electronics, automotive electronics, industrial control, and other high-reliability PCB assembly applications.
