Building a LitePlacer: An Open Hardware pick and place machine - Review

At some point in your Maker career you will inevitably get to the point where you want to make a bunch of PCBs but doing them by hand is tedious and prone to error.

This is where the LitePlacer comes in.

If you’re an electronic engineer or a pro-maker, then you’ll know what a pick & place machine is. For everyone else, these are high accuracy machines designed to… pick components from a reel and place them

I had the good fortune to be sent a LitePlacer, which is an Open Source, Open Hardware pick and place machine.

This video is the first part of my adventures with the LitePlacer.
