IFS-NX improves quality by preventing placement of incorrect parts, adds optional traceability capability, and improves efficiency by shortening setup time and component replacement.
Two systems are available: RFID*1*2*3 and CAN*4*5*6 depending on the feeder types used. The function of both systems is identical. |
|
|
*1 For compatible models, refer to the equipment specifications.
*2 RFID option of antenna and machine body is required separately
*3 Compatible with mechanical feeders, EF series feeders, tray server and tray changers.
*4 The CAN communication option of the machine body is required.
*5 Compatible with EF and RF series feeders |

■ Parts verification |
 |
IFS-NX ensures the correct components are placed on the PCB by verifying the part number required to the reels used. Production cannot start if any component is incorrect. Match is also verified every time a component is replenished. |
|
 |
 |
< with RFID/ CAN system>
The location of every feeder is automatically detected when the feeder is placed on the machine.
It helps the operator’s efficiency and provides a double check of the location. |
|
 |
|
■ Random feeder setup |
 |
This function allows the user to attach the feeder to the bank at arbitrary positions to enable production. This also updates the pick data in the production program based on the position by assigning the feeder at random positions during offline setup.

The RFID feature automatically recognizes random feeder setup positions.
< with RFID/ CAN system>
The RFID/CAN feature automatically recognizes random feeder setup positions. |
|
 |
■ Component inventory control・Feeder location search |
 |
Components can be stored in registered locations to improve stock control and the component count is always maintained by the IFS-NX even during production. |
|
 |
 |
< with RFID system>
The Intelli stocker(Optional)shares the location for stored feeders with the entire system making it easier to find reels when you need them. |
|
*Only available for Mechanical and EF feeder. |
|
 |
■ Off-line setup function |
 |
Offline feeder setup using feeder trolleys reduces errors and shortens total setup time by guiding operators through the process. |
|
 |
 |
< with RFID/ CAN system>
The location of every feeder is automatically detected when the feeder is placed on the machine.
It helps the operator’s efficiency and provides a double check of the location. |
|
|
 |
■ Traceability(Option) |
 |
The component lot numbers can be recorded during production and linked to the serial number of thePCB they are placed on for a complete and accurate traceability record, |
 |
|
■ Management of feeder maintenance history(Option) |
 |
IFS-NX records and manages feeder maintenance and inspection history.
Maintenance schedules are created and warnings can be set based on actual usage including pick cycles, hours of operation and mis-pick rates. Helps to decrease bottle necks and improves quality. |
|
 |
 |
< with RFID system>
The intelli feeder calibration jig(optional)automatically recognizes and records feeder IDs and the date when the feeders are inspected, decreasing the work and increasing accuracy for maintenance personnel. |
|
 |
|
【Difference between RFID and CAN】 |
The RFID system uses tags on every feeder and antenna boards mounted on the feeder bank to read the position of every feeder.
The CAN system*, compatible with electronic feeder only, uses the feeder's unique ID and connects by the same connector that is used for feeder power and status. |
* Available with EF/RF feeders only. |
