The Paste Roll Height Monitor is a productivity tool designed to eliminate defects. Uses lasers to detect solder paste; monitors height of the paste roll. Uses Instinctiv V9 for setup. Consists of two sensors that sit on either side of the squeegee blade framework support and are fully integrated into most printer software. A light curtain detects solder paste presence or absence, sending a signal to the printer. If paste crosses the light threshold and breaks the light beam, the printer reads that as a signal that paste is present and will continue to process boards as normal. If the light curtain is not disturbed, indicating a low paste height, the printer will alert the operator to add solder paste. As the paste roll starts to recede, the printer issues a warning.
