SMT Pickup Nozzle (multi-brand series)

From a mixed line to one nozzle order

Consolidating nozzles across brands follows one repeatable sequence: inventory the heads, list the parts you place, map each to a tip family, size the bore, then confirm material, the pick test and the part number before anything ships.

• Inventory the heads. List every mounter brand and model on the line - JUKI, Yamaha, Siemens, FUJI, Panasonic, Samsung.
• List the parts you place. Pull the distinct components from your board programs; the widths and weights drive the tips.
• Map part to tip family. Flat chips take a vacuum tip; leads take a slot; bulky or polarised parts take a gripper; large bodies take a pipe.
• Size the bore. For JUKI the catalogue maps each tip to an applicable component width; other brands are sized from the drawing.
• Confirm the shaft and changer. The nozzle must seat on the right head and, where used, the brand's automatic tool changer.
• Choose material. Copper alloy, carbide, ceramic, stainless or rubber, named per brand and per part - never assumed.
• Test the pick. The nozzle is proven on your component before it ships; marketing pickup-rate figures are treated as targets.
• Match the part number. Each brand has its own part-number revision; the order is placed against the number that fits your head.

Six nozzle series, one supplier

Each card opens a dedicated series page with its own verified data, photographs, working videos and documents. Start with the brand on your line.

• JUKI pickup nozzles. The 500 and 700 series, plus slot, gripper and pipe types for KE-2010 to KE-2060, FX-1 and the 700 heads, with tip bores published from 0.4 mm to 9.5 mm.
• Yamaha pickup nozzles. Nozzles for Yamaha YSM, YV and YG mounters, matched by head and part number, including ceramic and metal tip families.
• Gripper & custom nozzles. Gripper nozzles for bulky and polarised odd-form parts, and the custom nozzle and gripper design-and-manufacture service.
• Siemens / ASM nozzles. Pickup nozzles for Siemens and ASM Siplace mounters, supplied against the machine part number and confirmed for your head.
• FUJI pickup nozzles. Nozzles for FUJI NXT, CP and AIM mounters, matched by head and feeder platform and supplied against the machine part number.
• Custom nozzle design. Where no standard tip fits the part, a nozzle is designed and machined to your drawing - slot, gripper, pipe or odd-form, on the standard shaft and tool changer.

What this series page does not promise

A hub page that quietly implied one number fits every brand would be wrong. Six points below are stated differently across the documents, or apply to one brand only. Confirm each against the current drawing for your exact head before you order.

Where each series starts: the head and the number

Every nozzle order begins with the machine series and the part number. The table points each brand to its series page, where the fit detail lives.

The nozzle types on the shelf

Each is a documented family across the brands Southern Machinery supplies, not a one-off project.

• Standard vacuum tips. For flat chips, MELF, tantalum, SO, QFP and BGA, sized by component width.
• Slot nozzles. For leaded and connector parts; the slot straddles the leads and grips the body.
• Gripper nozzles. Mechanically clamp bulky or polarised parts - a 0.8 to 5.2 mm range on the JUKI family.
• Pipe nozzles. For large bodies, sockets and shields, with rubber-tip options to protect the part.
• Automatic Tool Changer fit. Custom nozzles are built to the standard slider shaft and the machine's tool changer.
• Custom design. When no standard tip suits the part, a nozzle is designed and machined to your drawing.

Six steps to a consolidated nozzle order

Ordering across brands is a short sequence. Follow it and one purchase order covers the whole line.

• Send the head list. Every mounter brand and model, with firmware where known. This sets which numbering applies.
• Send the parts or the drawing. The components you place, or a drawing of the odd-form part. Widths and weights drive the tip.
• Confirm the families. Southern Machinery maps each part to a vacuum, slot, gripper or pipe tip and proposes the bore.
• Match the part number. Each brand is quoted against the part number and revision that fits your head.
• Prove on a sample. Where it matters, a sample run on your component confirms the pick before volume ships.
• Set the spares kit. The matched set becomes your reorder list, reviewed as the part mix moves.

What happens after the nozzles land
