“Provide the user with the most effective product for the purpose” – Speedprint maintains a simple approach in developing and producing its equipment. The company bases its products upon simplicity, innovation and quality, and provides this as standard. This approach has lead to the SP210avi where all the critical elements of the process are provided as standard. Developed as a flexible fine pitch printer the SP210avi is ideal in any medium to high throughput environment. The capability of the M/C is based upon a platform which utilises the highest specification and quality of componentry, combined with the latest innovations in Axis/vision alignment. The system utilises a patent protected ‘look down, look down’ approach to vision alignment. Twin roving cameras mounted on independent X,Y, gantries ensure accurate and repeatable precision alignment, using fiducial marks or PCB/stencil features. This vision system, developed by Speedprint, facilitates a ‘paste on stencil’ inspection feature. This enables the user to determine that there is adequate paste on the stencil before running the print cycle.
Speedprint’s patent protected ‘Selective Auto-Paste Dispense’ technology is fully programmable. The advanced intelligence of the twin camera vision system analyses the stencil to see where paste is required and the dispenser deposits it accordingly. This unique option guarantees the integrity of consistent solder paste deposition onto PCBs. The user interface runs under a menu driven, Windows XP or Vista application, and is simple to operate. The software incorporates comprehensive self-diagnostic capabilities, including production logging and automatic fault report generation.
Data stored on the machine may be accessed remotely via a PC modem connection, allowing for ‘on the fly’ troubleshooting. Automatic rail width adjust is standard to aid quick changeovers in a high mix manufacturing environment. Stencil loading is automatic and the system does not require adaptors for varying sizes of stencil frames. Ease of maintenance and low cost of ownership are key characteristics of the SP210avi. Innovative design parameters have been employed in conjunction with the most advanced drive control technology on the market. This has resulted in a system that is accurate and efficient in operation and economic and practical to maintain. Key features are a 1.2 m2 footprint, high precision leadscrews fitted on all axis and providing ultimate in accuracy and reliability, 1 micron resolution linear encoders on all axis for optimum positional accuracy and twin roving cameras providing full process setup and validation. In addition to the standard M/C features Speedprint are able to provide additional options to assist in particular applications or provide greater control of the process.
