OpenPnP Feeder Sets: how to make, setup and use

Описание

How to generate custom pick and place strip feeder sets and all the steps for using them and doing setup with OpenPnP in the context of a small PCB assembly project. I wanted longer feeds for a project that had a whole bunch of components, so this video walks you through the PCBA adventure. Links below.

I did skip the height setup but that's well documented in https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=75hHtclelN4

** OpenSCAD and Tray generation **
OpenSCAD script: download the script ("PnPStripFeeder.scad") and run it locally
or use the thingiverse customizer on the site (there's a "Open in Customizer" link on the right)
