0816 Low-Profile Worm Gear Feeder (pick and place)

This 3D model is an 0816 feeder designed for pick and place machines, featuring a tape take-up unit that utilizes a low-profile worm gear. The compact design allows multiple feeders to be placed in parallel with minimal spacing between them. Based on the original work of mgrl, this feeder includes removable PETG supports to simplify assembly and eliminate the hassle of removing printed supports. It also features a dedicated space for the motor cables that operate the tape take-up mechanism, ensuring a clean and efficient setup.
