KA1800 – Tray and Tape Integrated IC Programming Machine (Offline Programmer Compatible)

The KA1800 is an automatic IC programming machine designed to work with offline programmers, offering a flexible and cost-effective solution for companies that already own standard offline programmers but need to automate their IC programming process.

This model features 8 programming stations, dual vacuum nozzles (pick and place), CCD visual positioning system, and supports a wide range of IC packages including QFP, QFN, SOP, and BGA. With a maximum output of 1800-2000 UPH, it significantly improves programming efficiency while reducing manual labor.

The KA1800 supports both tray and tape incoming/outgoing packaging:

• Tape in / Tape out

• Tape in / Tray out

• Tray in / Tape out

• Tray in / Tray out

Key differentiator: Unlike fully integrated systems, the KA1800 is designed as an external automation machine that connects to your existing offline programmers. This allows you to leverage your current programming investment while gaining full automation.

Key Features & Technical Specifications

Detailed Functional Highlights

1. Designed for Offline Programmers (External Automation)

The KA1800 is specifically designed as an external automation machine that connects to your existing offline programmers:

• Works with most standard offline programmers on the market

• Simple signal interface for start, stop, OK/NG communication

• No need to replace your existing programmer investment

• Ideal for companies transitioning from manual to automated programming

2. Fully Automatic Tray & Tape Integration (4 Modes)

The KA1800 supports four operation modes in one machine:

• Tape In → Tape Out

• Tape In → Tray Out

• Tray In → Tape Out

• Tray In → Tray Out

This flexibility allows you to adapt to different incoming IC packaging and output requirements without purchasing multiple machines.

3. High Precision Linear Motor Drive

Equipped with a linear motor on the X-axis, the KA1800 delivers:

• Higher speed and smoother motion compared to lead screw systems

• ±0.03mm placement accuracy

• Lower mechanical wear and longer service life

• Reduced maintenance requirements

4. 8 Independent Programming Stations

• 8 programming stations for parallel burning

• Each station can be turned on/off independently (1 to 8 stations as needed)

• Connects to offline programmers – each station can use its own programmer or share

• Ideal for medium-to-high volume production

5. CCD Visual Positioning System (Optional)

• CCD vision for precise chip alignment before placement

• Real-time image processing calculates X/Y/θ deviation

• Automatic position correction

• Essential for fine-pitch packages like QFP and BGA

• Note: CCD is optional but strongly recommended for QFP/BGA packages

6. Dual Nozzle Pick & Place

• 2 vacuum nozzles work efficiently for high-speed operation

• Gentle handling of delicate ICs

• Anti-drop design prevents chip damage during power failure

7. Automatic Tray System with NG Tray

• Automatic tray loading/unloading

• Dedicated NG tray for rejected chips

• Minimizes manual intervention

8. Wide IC Package Support

• Compatible with QFP, QFN, SOP, BGA

• Suitable for both standard and fine-pitch packages

• Ideal for mixed production environments

9. Optional Dot Marking

• Dot marking device available (colors: white, red, blue, green, yellow)

• For post-programming identification and traceability

10. Easy Maintenance

• Down-pressure sockets are easy to replace

• Linear motor requires less maintenance than traditional screw drives

• Clear video tutorials and documentation provided

Signal Interface & Integration with Offline Programmers

The KA1800 is specifically designed to work with your existing offline programmers. The standard signal interface allows communication between the machine and the programmer for:

• Start signal trigger

• Stop signal control

• OK/NG judgment feedback

• Programming status monitoring

• Other production control functions

Compatibility: The KA1800 works with most standard offline programmers from major brands. Please contact us to verify compatibility with your specific programmer model.
