ABSTRACT:
In an for controlling a feeder or feeder cart used in a pick-and-place electronics assembly machine, non-physical contact transmitters and receivers transfer data, such as feeder trigger signals, feeder ready signals, and component identification and usage information, between the feeder and/or feeder cart and the pick-and-place machine. Wiring or other physical connections between feeder, feeder cart, and pick-and-place machine controls are not required. A common, universal interface between different types of feeders, feeder carts, and pick-and-place machines is possible.
