Essemtec, the Swiss manufacturer of production systems for electronic assembly and packaging, today announced that it will participate in ACI Technologies’ second annual Tech Expo, scheduled to take place May 20-21, 2015 at its facility in Philadelphia, PA. Steve Pollock, Vice President of Essemtec USA, will demonstrate the Paraquda G2, Cubus and Lynx on the factory floor.
3-in-1 Multifunctional Center
Paraquda G2 is the world’s first machine that combines three different processes within one platform (jetting of solder paste, jetting of glue and placing of SMD components). The multifunctional center meets all requirements of a modern, highly flexible production system – quick changeover, intuitive operation and the combined usage of jet and/or needle valves. With this unique combination, the Paraquda G2 allows an unprecedented flexibility in the market. Being able to complete various processes with one machine eliminates the need of separate machines and reduces the investment costs dramatically. Set up is done directly from imported CAD data using an integrated medium library.
Next-Generation SMT Storage System
Cubus innovates how SMT components are stored and provisioned for electronic manufacturing. For the first time, a storage device is fully user configurable and hence adapts to the dynamic manufacturing needs. There are no limitations in terms of reel sizes, reel widths or JEDEC trays. With its flexible shelf configuration, foolproof operation and easy line integration, it easily adapts to the ever-changing manufacturing environments. Thanks to its small footprint and high storage capacity (up to 932 reels), Cubus can be positioned close to any SMT manufacturing line. Cubus interfaces easily with pick-and-place machines and, thus, greatly reduces kitting time and errors as well as machine interruptions due to missing or misplaced material. Configure – Operate – Integrate!
New Small Form Factor SMT Assembly System
Lynx bridges the gap between the Pantera X-plus and Paraquda SMT placement systems. It is ideally suited for high-mix SMT production. With 180 feeder lanes on less than 0.9 sqm it offers the highest feeder density on the market. The systems’ very high component flexibility is combined with unique capabilities to accurately place 0201 components backed by the latest-generation digital camera, fast laser centering and image processing systems. With the addition of the user-friendly Essemtec software package, Essemtec’s generally well-proven machine reliability and its low maintenance requirement, Lynx ensures steady and reliable flexible production, confirming its motto of “Optimize – Operate – Rely”.
Attendees of the ACI Technologies Tech Expo will have the opportunity to chat with dozens of technical experts and see equipment demonstrations first-hand. Also, attendees can attend technical sessions and meet local manufacturing representatives on both days. This is an excellent chance to advance both sales and business interests.
