Enhancing the performance and scalability of the line solutions, the new machines also enable manufacturers to address a broader range of surface mount assembly applications. Genesis now provides a common platform solution that satisfies the demands of today’s dynamic environment, regardless of product mix or production volumes.
According to the company, the quad-gantry placement machine leverages the fastest head tact time in the industry (55 ms) and is configured with four lightning heads. The machine is also equipped with a speed-enhancing positioning system, feeder, and software technologies – generating an maximum throughput of 120,000 components per hour and addressing the broadest component range in the industry. A combination of patented tools for precision placement, including high-accuracy individual direct-drive theta in the spindles, and closed-loop controls for X,Y, Z, Phi, high-speed valves and pick/place touchdown, give the machine the outright lead in small part performance with an accuracy of 65 microns at 4 sigma (Cpk 1.33). While a range of automated features compensate for variability in components, feeders, and boards, the design also prioritises ease of maintenance, minimal downtime, and low cost-of-ownership.
The GC-30S, configured with a 30-spindle lightning head, and the GX-11S multi-function version, configured with a 7-spindle FlexJet3 and 4-spindle InLine4 HF head with 5 kg placement force, supplement the GC-120Q with additional feeder capacity and world-class multi-function capability up to 150 mm-long connectors. Optimising the platform’s portfolio range from high-volume solutions to the finest high-mix lines, the S-Series platforms also offer very large board capability to meet the needs of high-end server and router applications.
