This is a replacement CPU card for Panasonic AI and SMT equipment, supplied as an individual board so a technician can change it during a planned stop instead of leaving a machine down. PCB assembly plants, EMS factories and equipment repair companies order it by the board number, and we check the part against the machine before it is packed. We carry boards for the platforms built by SMT pick and place machine manufacturers, so the same team that already handles your feeders, nozzles and drive parts can confirm this card as well. Control boards like this sit alongside the other parts we supply for the same lines, which means one enquiry can cover everything a repair needs.
The straightest way to order this card is by part number X00F84201, and the board it replaces will carry its own printed name and number on the PCB. Those printed details matter more than appearance: connectors, board size and layout can look identical across two different Panasonic cards, and a visual match is no proof that a board will work in your machine. If the number on the old card carries a revision or a suffix, say so and we will check what is available. Keep the old board until the replacement is running — it is the fastest reference if anything has to be checked afterwards, and it makes a like-for-like comparison simple for your technician.

Before anything is touched, the machine should be powered down and isolated following your own lockout procedure. Keep the replacement card in its antistatic bag until that moment, and handle it by the edges — fingers on connector pins or components are a common cause of trouble at first fitting. Store spares in a dry, stable area away from direct sunlight, damp floors and heavy vibration, and keep the original packing for transport if the card has to travel between sites. Loose boards left on a bench or in a metal drawer collect dust and static, so leave the card bagged until it is needed.
ZJ-SMT supplies Panasonic SMT and PCB assembly equipment and spare parts to manufacturers worldwide. Our range covers pick-and-place machines, axial and radial insertion equipment, solder paste inspection systems, and feeder spare parts, with both new and used options available. We support bulk orders, and machine condition and availability are confirmed with you before ordering. Whether you are expanding a line, replacing a worn feeder part, or sourcing equipment for a new project, send us your model numbers and our team will come back with a suitable solution and quotation.
This is the processor board: the machine reads its board-level program at start-up and while it is producing. The other numbered boards in the cabinet handle their own jobs, such as axis control and input or output signals. If you are not sure which board has failed, send the number printed on it or a clear photo, and we will tell you whether it is this card or another item in the Panasonic range.
It is supplied for AI and SMT spare-parts use, which covers automated insertion machine equipment and surface-mount placement lines. Tell us which line you are repairing and where the board sits in the cabinet, and we will check those details against your machine before the card is packed.
Our core range is Panasonic SMT and AI equipment, and we also supply compatible components used on those lines. If your machines were built by other SMT pick and place machine manufacturers, send the model and the number printed on the board, and we will tell you what we can source and what we cannot.
Treat it like any control board change: power the machine down first, fit the card with your usual static precautions, then run a start-up check and a short test cycle before the line goes back into full production. If anything behaves differently from the old board, note what the machine reports and send it to our team so we can go through the next step with your technician.
Only where both machines call for the same board number. Two Panasonic platforms can look alike and still use different control boards, so check the number printed on each machine's card before you order. Send us the models and numbers for the machines you run, and we will confirm which of them this card suits.
Component-level repair is a job for your own service team or a board-repair specialist. What we supply is the replacement card, so your maintenance team has a like-for-like board to fit and the machine is not held up waiting on a repair. If you are weighing both routes, send the board number and machine model and we will confirm what we can supply.
