Abstract
A press-in machine for pressing electrical, electronic, mechanical and/or electromechanical components into a substrate, in particular into a printed circuit board or carrier plate, and method therefor, including a moving unit, which comprises a receptacle for a substrate and with which the substrate can be moved in a plane, which is spanned by an x-axis and a y-axis and can be placed in a press-in position in which one or more components are pressed into the substrate, a lower tool, which comes to rest against the underside of the substrate before or during the press-in, an upper tool, which can be moved against the component for pressing the component along the z axis toward the substrate, a control unit for controlling the moving unit, and a sensor for detecting at least one reference mark present on the substrate, wherein the control unit is configured and designed such that it controls the moving unit depending on the detected reference mark in such a way that the substrate is placed between the lower tool and the upper tool in the press-in position.
