MANNCORP �HI OUTPUT� TURNKEY LINE TARGETS MID TO HIGH-VOLUME FLEXIBLE SMT ASSEMBLY

An automated turnkey line now offered by Manncorp includes a 4-head pick and place that provides assets of speed, flexibility and fast changeover. The �Hi Output Line� also includes an inline fully automatic stencil printer, an 8-zone reflow oven and pass-through conveyor, priced below $180,000 complete. According to CEO Henry Mann, �The 10,500 cph placement speed allows mid-volume assemblers to step-up throughput while benefitting from the increased savings and service advantages of purchasing the entire line from a single-source provider.�

The pick and place features the Cognex� flying vision-controlled MC683 conveyorized dual gantry system with speed enhanced by two heads that pick as the other two simultaneously place with repeatable accuracy of �0.01mm. Included is an off-line loadable �plug-and play� modular smart feeder trolley facilitating quick changeovers.

Every operational aspect of the line-balanced G300 fully automatic stencil printer is computer controlled. It includes dual motorized print heads and vision-controlled fiducial alignment, resulting in a registration accuracy of �0.025mm. An automatic stencil cleaner is built-in. The CR8000 reflow oven ensures precise adherence to profiles with eight independent upper and lower heat zones and PID temperature control to 300�C. Boards travel on an edge-pin conveyor adjustable to 450mm width (18�). The MC683 is coupled to the reflow by a pass-thru SMEMA-compatible inline conveyor with manual or auto bypass modes for inspection or mounting of special components.
