The SP710 SMT screen printer from Speedprint is equipped with an optional automatic dispense unit (ADu), which can be fitted with any combination of paste and glue module. The machine utilises advanced drive control technology with 1 micron resolution linear encoders on all axes, together with a suite of intuitive software that enables total control of the printing process.
The printer is fully equipped, as standard, with many features such as automatic rail width adjust, auto stencil loading and eject, and an under-stencil cleaner.
The vision system utilises a unique twin roving camera ‘look down, look down’ method of automatic vision alignment. This gives users the capability of checking for solder paste presence on the stencil before printing.
Selective auto-paste inspection comes as standard and is fully programmable. The top camera is used to check that adequate solder paste is present on the stencil, and will alert the operator or instruct the automatic paste dispenser to deposit paste, if fitted as an option.
