Benchmark 2.0 is the latest version of Speedline Technologie’s machine operating software, which debuts on the MPM Accela printer. It offers post-print inspection enhancements, integration of bar code scanning for product traceability and process verification, singulated processing of indexed Auer boat substrates, and support for CAMX machine data streaming per the IPC-2541 specification. The software includes SpeedVision, a high speed inspection architecture that provides improved board area inspection quantitatively (with data) at line speed. The architecture increases the speed of contrast-based pad coverage inspection, and texture-based BridgeVision and StencilVision through the use of full field-of-view processing, rapid image acquisition and optimized camera travel. The resultant decrease in inspection time ranges from 40 to 70 percent. The software provides support for an externally mounted bar code scanner that can link the substrate identification code with SPC data for product traceability. A handheld scanner is also available for use with the process verification feature that enables confirmation of various process materials, such as the substrate, squeegees, stencil, paste and tooling.
The Windows-based software utilizes a familiar graphical user interface (GUI) with step-through tabs for easy, sequential programming. The GUI provides wizards that guide the operator through troubleshooting and utility routines to facilitate rapid return to production.
