Description

Hey guys! We've build LiteSolder an automatic solderpaste dispensing system which uses camera-calibration. Its an easy and simple but still effective way to dispense solderpaste to your PCB up to Footprints like TQPF-100 or BGA81. Its implemented to the LitePlacer System. Its almost 3D-printed and no extra hardware unless the extruder parts are needed. - If you want rebuild or make it better: Visit our LiteSolder Wiki with a precise manual and step by step guide. Everything is open source, from the code to the 3D parts and our suggestions for the solderpaste. Make your first PCB batch using LiteSolder and LitePlacer. The parts from local shops just costs around 100$, probably you'll find cheaper way. We hope you'll like LiteSolder! Visit our Wiki here: https://github.com/Carinalo93/LiteSolder - We've uploaded a video you can find at the headline "Files".

Well, thats an actual issue to solve. LiteSolder can make one pad size at time. You need to increase the volumen to change the solderpaste value on the pad. We had the idea to connect the size of a pad to the dispense value. - Do you have an idea? ;)

Are you sure? yes | no

Very nice! Any chance you have a video of it dispensing?

Are you sure? yes | no
