Essemtec will highlight CSM7100, a flexible pick-and-place system with intelligent feeders for high-mix/low-volume production, in booth 5800 at the upcoming AT Expo.
Standard laser alignment is accurate, reliable and maintenance-free. Every component is measured and aligned on-the-fly. Also, tape reels, tape strips, sticks and trays of any size can be used to feed parts. Components as tall as 15 mm can be placed.
Fulfills the requirements of high-mix/low-volume SMT production with a wide application range. Benefits include a feeder capacity of 100 x 8 mm, intelligent tape feeders from 8 to 56 mm, 4000 placements per hour, optical on-the-fly alignment, easy graphical operation system, integrated dispensing system, barcode-based feeder setup and a universal CAD data input filter.
Lightplacer Windows-based software features a fully graphical man-machine interface. Large feeder capacity and automatic recognition of intelligent feeders ensure minimum changeover times and error-free placement. Tape feeders are electrically driven and the pitch is programmable. Can be programmed on- or offline. Barcode labels on feeders and components guarantee correct feeder setup using a barcode reader.
Rohm and Haas Electronic Materials is exhibiting at Productronica in Munich, November 15 – 18, in Hall B4, Stand 205. The company will present new processes for both the printed circuit, packaging and finishing markets. Circuposit C3 Ultra is the latest self-accelerating electroless copper process and is complemented by two additions to the electroplating portfolio with Copper Gleam Microfill copper via-filling process and Copper Gleam CuPulse pulse plating acid copper process. The final finish product line is enhanced with Duraposit SMT 88 electroless nickel for ENIG applications, and Pallamerse SMT 2000 electroless palladium. In the imaging sector, R&H will show the Lithojet UV Mask, for inkjet able phototool, and its halogen-free soldermask product, Durashield 5900HF. The company has created planarisation package for thick copper circuitry with Filler Coater DF 1122 and Durashield V42 Filler and Mask. The Packaging and Finishing markets see a new pure tin, Solderon ST-380, and high speed bright tin, Solderon BT-280, designed for the lead-free electrical connector applications.
IMPACT T22 is an intelligent camera designed as a drop-in replacement for obsolete or underpowered vision systems. An extension to the T-series, the image processing computer is contained inside the camera, enabling it to be deployed without additional image processing hardware.
Has ½-inch CCD, is interchangeable with older, camera-based vision systems, enabling manufacturers to upgrade older vision engines to achieve real-time inspection while reusing existing optical and lighting components. Suitable for analog and digital systems.
