Description
This SMT printer is a super precise Professional Machine for doing high mix, high value SMT production. This machine has a long heritage ... being the first product sold by Transition Automation, Inc. 25 years ago. Recently - due to some particular customer requests, we redesigned and currently offer it for sale again. This machine has a repeatability within 1mil, that is, if you load a pcb and line up the stencil (which is very easy with our integral x,y,theta and z adjustments - then you can eject the board on the linear shuttle and re-load it and the image is locked back in the exact same position - good within 1-mil. We do this with carefully engineered movements - all provided by ball bearings, and spring loaded systems to remove hysteresis and backlash. This system is designed to do Fine Pitch SMT quickly and accurately. We have sold over 400 of these system in our history - and the design has been recently updated. What's great about this machine? Well first off, it sets up very easily with the open, top loading stencil table. The sequence is intuitive: Tool up your pc board, in approximately the center of the tooling plate, shuttle the tooling plate in, lay the stencil and align it while it's freely floating on the riser surface. Once you line it up to the board, clamp the stencil on the no-slip surface. Then if you have the semi-automatic version, you move trigger pucks to the extremes of the print area. This machine shown uses a precision Permalex Edge Hand Squeegee. This is a top quality professional printing system, not like a cheap clamshell machine. We offer a 30 money back guarantee, and a 1-year warranty; We have some similar systems that have been in the field over 20 years and still working excellant. This machine takes about 8 weeks to build - and we expect to have inventory in January 2019 for faster shipments (2 weeks minimum). Although you can find other printers with more automation - used , for less, this product is ready to go into full production and you won't get stuck with "time-out" errors and loose wires stopping your production. You won't be left missing a critical part on an older generation machine. This machine has NO software, NO computer, and is fully mechanical - except the Semi-Automatic version, in that case it's a hard-wired, all soldered connection system with DC motor drive and very rock solid performance. Also: Transition Automation, Inc. is a master metal squeegee maker/supplier, so we provide the top squeegee with this system and can support customers quickly with our normal fast turn around response time. The tooling on this system is very flexible and easy to use, and we tether the hand tools used for the tooling pins/disks right to the bench - so you won't be looking for them after you start pumping products through this machine. Take a look and send a message if you have any questions. These machines are used by top production facilities for prototyping, backup and full production of High Mix, High Value SMT. Avionics, Medical Equipment, Satellite, Telecom, Precision Instrument, Precision Control - these are the types of customers who have purchased this equipment in the past.
