Lightning speed from novel placement head
The high-speed Lightning placement head extends the performance of both Genesis and AdVantis platform systems.
The AC-30L (Lightning) platform combines the throughput of Universal's revolutionary rotary Lightning head with the flexibility and value driven performance of the acclaimed AdVantis platform.
With its ability to deliver high utilisation for both top and bottom side applications along with high speed placement of large parts, the AdVantis AC-30L blurs the distinction between flexible fine pitch and chip shooters.
The Lightning head itself features a radial array of 30 modular, individually controlled spindles - a configuration that delivers productivity-enhancing features by driving placement rates up to 30,000 components per hour on AdVantis.
Universal's AdVantis AC-30L addresses an unsurpassed range of components from 0201 to 30 x 30mm and places devices such as CSP, WSP, uBGA and MELFs at full speed.
Visitors to the stand can also sample new Dimensions manufacturing management software capabilities, including New Product Introduction (NPI), which streamlines factory floor tasks for prototyping, first article build and high mix specialists.
Experts from Universal will be demonstrating how the extreme performance of Universal's flexible platform placement machines combines with powerful software tools to maximise throughput, utilisation and return on investment.
