MCP screen printer has a head design with variable attack angle printing that reportedly permits constant solder pressure independent of stencil thickness. Single-head system reportedly reduces maintenance by half. Board cycle time is as low as 11 sec. Reduces defect per million figures by up to 50%. Has a flat-metal single-head squeegee. Variable angle print head improves repeatability of paste deposition for 01005 components. Produces solder shapes with stencil thickness down to 50 µm, and half-edging stencils with stencil steps of 30 to 50 µm. Is ideal for PCBs mixing 01005 (0.4 mm x 0.2 mm) types with larger component sizes.

Siplace SiCluster Professional software determines component overlaps in family setups. Groups shared components on constant component tables, which remain on the machine during setup changeovers. Reportedly reduce setup time by hours, while reducing space and investment requirements for feeders and component carts by up to 33%. Is available as an add-on to Siplace Pro v. 7.1, which offers setups for single products or product families combined with fixed setups, offline setups of feeder tables and changeover tables concepts, nonstop setup changeovers with line execution system, or random setups of individual feeder modules.
