Print platforms add features and performance
DEK has added a number of performance and productivity improvements to its Horizon product line.
Screen service provides fast delivery
Manufacturers of PV cells can combine DEK's precision screens with printers from DEK or third-party suppliers.
Operators in diverse territories will also appreciate integrated support for a wide selection of languages, including simplified Chinese, Korean and Japanese.
The new user interface also supports the optional DEK 248 vision capabilities.
Vision setup features are fully integrated, and real-time image data is displayed live on-screen.
Vision information of the currently running product is saved automatically with the product file, delivering a fast and fail-safe user experience.
The new user interface replaces the four-line LCD panel of earlier models, and also adopts the look and feel of the DEK Instinctiv user interface available for DEK's high-end fully automatic platforms.
This enhances commonality between all machines in the DEK range to make life easier for assemblers operating a mix of semi-automatic and fully automatic machines, or migrating to higher performance equipment.
Operators can reach maximum productivity quickly with minimal adjustment or retraining.
A 3.5in floppy disk drive is also included as part of the new hardware, facilitating exchange of product files and information between the semi-automatic machine and desktop PCs, and the enterprise network.
