MYDATA wins multiple awards at the 5th SMT China VISION Award

MYDATA won multiple awards at the 5th SMT China VISION Award in the categories ” Pick & Placement - Medium & Low Volume” and “Software-Production Management” for its new MY100HXe and DXe pick and place solution and offline productivity software suite MYCenter. The awards were handed out during a ceremony at NEPCON Shanghai on May 12th, 2011.

Sponsored by the SMT China Magazine, the VISION Award honours the products and technologies that have shaped the PCB manufacturing industry over the past year. Award recipients are selected by a panel of industry experts who evaluate each submission based on how it relates to innovation, and how it helps downstream industry to reduce cost, improve quality, increase efficiency, enhance reliability, improve safety and environmental friendliness.

With the MY100e series, and the new HXe model rated at 50,000 components per hour it is now possible to achieve an efficient solution for even the most disruptive high-volume production environments. This continuous, high-speed production solution enables a fully automated material flow run by fewer operators.

“As a leader in the high-mix sector, MYDATA proves with the MY100e series that customers no longer need to make the usual trade-offs between speed and flexibility”, says Pelle Wennerlund, Managing Director of Micronic Mydata Co. Ltd. in China. To succeed today, electronics manufacturers need to manage increasing daily board volumes, last-minute customer demands and disruptive peaks in production. In this environment, new opportunities depend on a solution that’s not just faster, but more agile. One that uses smarter material handling and information management to make manufacturers more responsive and get more jobs done each day.

The new MY100e series includes four models: LXe, SXe, DXe and HXe, each in two sizes ranging from 16,000 to 50,000 components per hour and with a total of 96 to 176 feeder positions. All machines can be configured with various synergy options for in-line production, and all are compatible with the existing range of MYDATA machines, feeders and software. This allows customers to meet their changing needs while better utilizing previous investments.

As the SMT operation becomes more complex and fast-paced, comprehensive software solutions have quickly become a necessity. After all, improved utilization, efficiency and customer responsiveness all depend on a single set of reliable data. For these reasons, MYDATA is proud to offer the richest software suite in the industry, with integrated applications covering the entire chain of SMT assembly. MYCenter forms the foundation of this software suite, offering ease-of-use and single-point data storage for efficient information handling throughout the factory floor. With functionality such as job sequence scheduling, integrated material tracking, ERP connectivity and full traceability, the MYDATA software suite ensures error-free, non-stop production, even in the most complex production environment.
