DEK is a global provider of advanced materials deposition technologies and support solutions including printing equipment platforms, stencils, precision screens and mass imaging processes used across a wide range of applications in electronics pre-placement subassembly, semiconductor wafer manufacture, and alternative energy component production.
The company’s range of powerful mass imaging platforms includes the Horizon family, engineered to blend process-critical functionality with real value for manufacturers at every level. A multi-tiered platform built on a precision-engineered printer frame optimized to ensure mechanical and thermal stability under a variety of conditions, Horizon enhances cycle time, yield and flexibility through a range of premium features and advanced performance options.
At the heart of this range is DEK’s flagship Horizon specification, Horizon 01i – a high-speed, high-accuracy solution for diverse assembly challenges. Ideal for a wide range of production environments from high-mix to high-volume, the platform is first choice for challenging applications including 0201s and CSP packages. According to the company it delivers the fastest cycle time and highest process capability in its class at 10 seconds and 2.5 Cpk @ ± 25 µm, the premier Horizon specification delivers everything one would expect from a high-end, automated machine for continuous high throughput pre-placement.
While high-speed mechanical design and position sensing cuts cycle time dramatically, the platform also offers all the utilization and productivity benefits of the advanced Instinctiv V9 user interface. Delivering ultra high-speed interface capability, the Instinctiv V9 software suite enables faster set-up and first time print, lower operator training requirements, easier error avoidance and recovery. The recently updated system also features a broad range of improvements including enhanced parameter editing, command availability and real-time feedback – each designed to extend Instinctiv’s capacity to streamline new product introduction, monitor complex processes and reduce stoppages.
Instinctiv V9 is fully compatible with a range of Productivity Tools and options, all available to help customers achieve more with Horizon 01i. Optional throughput-enhancing additions include the Cyclone understencil cleaner, optimized to cut conventional cleaning times in half. Reportedly by specifying HawkEye 1700, manufacturers can also drive post-print verification to the highest level currently available – without compromise. Horizon 01i is also compatible with HD Grid-Lok, the automated high-density tooling technology designed to support an entire PCB assembly at the touch of a button for a distinct usability and cost advantage.
Featuring advanced motion control mechanisms, rapid setup and push-button changeover capabilities, Horizon 01i guarantees the ideal combination of speed, precision and process control for challenging manufacturing environments.
