Pneumatic Pick Station

Small low-pressure pick-and-place station for lightweight parts. Small low-pressure pick-and-place station for lightweight parts.

Components

  • MCU
  • low-pressure valve drivers
  • position sensors

Build steps

  1. Inventory the board, actuators, sensors, and power rails listed for I06.
  2. Build and inspect the low-voltage wiring against the supplied connection diagram before connecting actuators.
  3. Flash the firmware, run the startup self-check, and record the printed board and firmware version.
  4. Calibrate the sensors and limits, then run the acceptance tests at the lowest safe energy level.

Test and expected result

Leak test, pressure limits, cycle repeatability, and safe exhaust behavior.

Safety and limits

Low pressure only; include a regulator and mechanical dump.
