We now have a Liteplacer pick and place machine which we obtained through Makerfaire 2015.
What
A pick and place machine puts the components on circuit boards at assembly phase. These machines are used for modern surface mounted devices (SMD). The LitePlacer is an affordable desktop machine aimed for prototype quantities boards, it's not necessarily faster than placing by hand but offers a degree of automation of a tedious step during hand prototyping.
