Cobra – high-tech for highly fl exible placement
Today, SMD boards are being assembled in increasingly small batch
sizes. Just in time or set productions require completely di� erent
manufacturing methods. It is not just about the placement rate but
about the whole programming and set-up concept. Simultaneously,
today’s machines have to ensure that future component types and
manufacturing technologies can be utilized. The Cobra mounter has
been developed to meet these requirements and represents a
quantum leap in the area of highly fl exible manufacturing for high
throughput.
Leading edge engineering technology, the most feeders per m2 in the
marketplace, intelligent feeders and set-up concepts, the largest board
sizes together with the most compact system sizes and the software
based on “eez-technology“ ensure highly e� cient and economical SMD
manufacturing for service providers and in-house production.

“ Designed for even more product changes per day,
an even bigger range of components, increasing
requirements for placement accuracy, speed and
availability combined with high quality –
Swiss made – engineering. ”

High-Tech materials are the basis for innovative assembly technologyMachines made in Switzerland
Cobra is being developed and manufactured in Switzerland
according to the highest quality criteria.
Know How
Based on the experience of more than 5000 systems
installed, the pick&place machine Cobra sets new standards
in innovative technology.
Carbon axis
Carbon fi bre composite material is one of the most promi-
sing materials of the 21st century. The Cobra’s X-axis is made
of it, allowing for numerous benefi ts including weight,
reduction, durability and minimized thermal expansion as
well as simultaneously higher dynamic and placement rates
with reduced mechanical abrasion.
S W I S S M A D E
Linear drives with
magnesium heat sinks
Using linear drives on the X and Y axes
has the advantage of highly dynamic
and fast traverse paths, optimum posi-
tioning characteristics and a long
lifecycle as well as allowing for
additional savings in the areas of belt
and spindle attrition. Specially
designed magnesium heat sinks
ensure the motor‘s heat dissipation
with their e� cient heat conduction
and low weight.
Mineral cast
The machine’s chassis consists
completely of mineral composite.
Compared to conventional cast of iron
or steel, mineral composite o� ers the
advantages of better vibration
characteristics and thermal stability.
This combination ensures much
higher precision at faster placement
rates. Additionally, mineral composite
shows an optimal ecological energy
balance for manufacturing as well as
for future recycling.
Motion system
The main axes, X and Y, are designed
as H-portal with coupled Y axes. Each
axis has its own, individually cont-
rolled linear motor with a high-reso-
lution optical length measuring
system, each for ultra-precise and very
fast positioning.
The motion system is constructed as a
real-time system and uses local
control systems that signifi cantly
reduce the number of cables in the
machine and, consequently, minimi-
zes service cost and downtime. The
1GB connection ensures very short
response time by broadband trans-
mission.
Comparison vibration behaviour
One machine for all components
The days of single, dedicated assemblers for quick chip shooting and additional machines for precision placement are now. Cobra mounts all device packages from 01005, QFPs, complex BGAs, QFNs, CSP, bare dies, and connectors to odd shapes up to 50 x 150 mm on a single ma-chine.

High-fl ex placement head
The eightfold placement head not only
enables ultrafast chip shooting but also
allows high accuracy placement on all
eight axes. Every axis is controlled by
closed loop and a servomotor, all of
which have high-resolution encoders
even on the rotational axes.
Unique transport system
The SMEMA 3-stage transport system
accepts board sizes up to 460 x 640
mm (optional 800 x 640 mm).
Specially developed support pins and
precise clamping ensure perfect
fi xation during assembly. Both
transport rails can be automatically
adjusted and allow for customized
installations depending on board size
and the desired feeder confi guration.

Intelligent feeder lanes allow for maximum fl exibility
Feeder/feeder lanes
The Cobra assemblers can use all
former Essemtec feeders. This ensures
downward compatibility and preserves
existing customers’ assets.
Intelligent feeder bus
All machines have an intelligent
feeder bus. Feeders are being logged
on and o� automatically, and all
production data are linked via the
integrated database.
Essemtec’s hyQ-Feeder simplify and fasten setup of component
reels to SMD pick-and-place machines. Regarding speed,
accuracy and reliability, these feeders rank in the world’s top class. They integrate
an active tape pull-back system. hyQ-Feeder are available for 8 and 12 mm tapes.

Most feeders per sqm in the marketplaceThe machine o� ers up to 240 feeder
positions. In addition to 120 feeder spaces
at the front and the back, feeders can be
inserted at the left and right side.
Depending on board size, these spaces
may be inserted in front or behind the
transport system as well as in the trans-
port system. In this mode, it is possible to
reach optimum layout and minimum
changeover time.
For the Cobra and Paraquda mounter
series, there are additional ultrafast and
precise feeders available that augment the
placement rate of these models by 20
percent.

Throughput vs. placement speed
The given fi gures for placement speed do not tell much about possible board throughput.
Especially in the area of highly fl exible manufacturing, there are various more signifi cant
parameters that infl uence the attainable results.
Programming (ePlace)
Cobra is the second generation of assembly systems based on “ePlace,” the new software
standard for pick&place machines.
ePlace, the new software designed entirely by Essemtec, is based on the company’s “eez-
technology.” It has been fully developed in .net, uses an integrated database and o� ers a
modern, interactive, intelligent and intuitive tool for controlling all parameters.
Changeover/reloading
The Cobra assembly system has been developed for highly fl exible manufacturing and contains
all functions necessary for set up and reloading with zero downtime. Using a freely confi gurable
CAD converter, whole assembly programs and production optimizations can be developed
o� ine as well as capturing components and allocating feeders.
During operation it is possible to insert, replace or reload and splice feeders. LED indicators on
the feeders ensure that the operator knows exactly how to process the task at hand.
The machine indicates optimal feeder set-ups with the prospective placement speed in order to
achieve optimum process conditions.
Upgrading feeders
All feeders are equipped for quick loading. FLX feeders are available in compact and lightweight
cartridges. The Cobra feeders allow for even faster loading due to an integrated direct haul-o�
of the cover band. This eliminates the need for connecting a tape haul-o� .
Neither system requires expensive guide adapters without longer for short set up times.
