Incorporates vibratory bowl feeders, centrifugal feeders, and flexible feeder systems to sort and feed components like capacitors, connectors, screws, and chips with precision for assembly line integration.
Combines robotic pick-and-place and high-speed packaging robots for tasks such as placing components on PCBs, soldering, or packing finished electronics, with collaborative robots (cobots) for flexible, safe operation.
Automates the assembly of electronic components, such as connectors, enclosures, or circuit board subassemblies, ensuring high precision and repeatability.
Includes filling and sealing systems for protective packaging, dispensing systems for coatings or potting compounds, labelling and coding systems for barcodes and serial numbers, and automated assembly for packaging components like enclosures, plus palletising and depalletising for efficient stacking of packaged electronics.
Systems designed to conduct electrical and functional tests on electronic components and finished products, including automated optical inspection (AOI) for defect detection on PCBs.
Systems equipped with advanced sensing and imaging technologies for dimensional measurements, surface inspection, and quality control of electronic components.
RNA’s in-house engineering team designs custom systems to meet unique client requirements in the electronics sector.
Custom and standard systems for scalability and quick deployment.
Utilising advanced AI and simulation tools (RNA Digital), RNA optimises system designs for performance, reliability, and efficiency, predicting part handling outcomes and reducing development time for OEM applications.
Automation in the electronics industry refers to the use of control systems, such as computers or robots, and information technologies to handle different processes and machinery in the production and manufacturing of electronic components and devices. This can include tasks like assembling circuit boards, testing electronic components, and packaging finished products.
Automation in the electronics industry is employed in various ways, including:
RNA designs systems to handle a wide range of components used in electronics manufacturing, including capacitors, resistors, housings, terminals, PCB connectors, switches, LEDs, sensors, and small plastic or metal casings. We specialise in feeding and orienting miniature and delicate components with tight tolerances.
Our systems are engineered for precision feeding and positioning. Custom tooling, anti-static materials, and gentle handling mechanisms are used to prevent damage to sensitive parts and ensure reliable downstream assembly.
For varied or high-mix production, RNA offers flexible feeding systems like FlexCube™ and FlexType™ P, which enable quick reconfiguration and tool-less part changeovers. These are ideal for electronics manufacturers producing multiple board designs or product variants.
Yes. RNA integrates vision inspection systems to verify orientation, part presence, code marking, and dimensional compliance.
