Rapid Quad Board
$159.00 – $179.00
Assembled in USA.
Designed specifically for SMT pick and place machines run by OpenPNP, the Rapid Quad Board is an all-in-one solution to run a four nozzle pick and place machine on Smoothieware.
Available in two versions:
A) Full TMC2208 drivers for all 6 axis
B) Encoder setup where TMC2208 is only populated for nozzles rotation and Z axis, while X and Y have DIR/STEP/EN & Motor VIN output for encoder connection.
Measures at just 100 x 75mm, it’s the smallest PNP board out there. Includes a bonus conveyer hookup!

Features
- Runs on Smoothieware
Available in two versions:
A) Regular version – All axis drivers are populated with TMC2208
B) Encoder version – Only nozzle rotation and Z axis for nozzles are TMC2208. X and Y axis drivers are un-populated and instead have DIR/STEP/EN pinout to connect an external encoder driver (sold separately). - Separate power rails – Max 36V for motors and 24V for board with fuses (included).
- 4 port USB Hub – reduce cable clutter by connecting only one USB cable to your machine. Both cameras, feeder and smoothie board itself connect via the hub.
- Four vacuum sensor connection (via IDC connector).
- Eight solenoid signals (via IDC connector).
- Micro SD Card slot – Configuration is easier using a text based config file loaded on the SD card, no need to upload firmware every time you make a change. Just edit the config file from your PC then reboot the board with the new config and you’re done. (Micro SD card not included)
- Conveyer setup:
A) IN, OUT, STOP signal connections for another PNP or reflow oven.
B) DRV8833 on board for conveyer motor control, capable of driving dual motors on both sides of conveyer.
C) Board-In & Board-Out connections to know when your board has moved into the PNP and left it. - Two camera connections via USB A.
- Two camera LED mosfets. One via IDC connector and one via connector on board.
- Two endstops for X/Y.
- Strong mosfet for vacuum pump with flyback diode already soldered for extra protection.
- Emergency Halt/Reset connection.
- Nine expansion pins, in addition to GND, 5V, Motor VIN & Board VIN.
