Printing system upgrades materials deposition
Enclosed head printing provides exceptionally efficient materials transfer, superior throughput rates, higher process yields, lower material consumption and improved process control.
Print platform handles large image sizes
The Europa Vi can handle large board products up to 7.5kg in weight and 6mm thick and features heavy-duty remote board stops.
With the optional HawkEye post-print verification system onboard, the Horizon 03i becomes even more robust, enabling 100% board inspection at the line beat rate and ensuring that only good boards pass out of the machine.
The award-winning HawkEye system provides today's electronics manufacturers with significant improvements in end of the line yield and an operator-friendly inspection system that requires very little training.
With no programming required, operators can easily implement this technology to ensure maximum productivity.
In addition to the Horizon 03i and HawkEye technologies, DEK will also have its revolutionary VectorGuard stencil system on display at the show.
The interchangeable foil system allows manufacturers to use one frame and easily change out traditional stainless steel stencils, PumpPrint stencils for adhesive printing, Eform stencils for ultra fine pitch device printing and laser cut nickel stencils for robust lead-free materials printing.
The versatile system is widely accepted as the leading stencil technology for modern electronics manufacturers.
To round out the total pre-placement process, DEK also delivers unique tooling solutions and consumables products and will have these items available at the event.
DEK will exhibit with Mektronix in Booth 400 at the Canadian High Technology Show on 29th and 30th March 2006 at the International Centre in Toronto.
DEK experts will be on hand to discuss manufacturing requirements and illustrate how the mass imaging leader continues its award-winning record for technological innovation and superior customer service.
