FRANKLIN, MA (PRWEB) September 13, 2004 -- Speedline Technologies, Inc. (http://www.speedlinetech.com) announces the availability of a software release– providing added functionality and capabilities – for its industry-leading MPM AccuFlex in-line printers. The upgrade is immediately available for both new and for upgrade on installed AccuFlex systems.
Accuflex printers provide a highly reliable, fast and accurate means of applying solder paste and other PCB materials and are ideally suited for moderate volume, high-mix printing at a cost-effective price. The system combines accuracy and unparalleled flexibility in a compact footprint, providing only what is needed for efficient and precise printing, while offering a full range of options for future expansion.
Speedlines newest software release delivers a number of features requested by current customers. Two advancements expand the capabilities of the printer for the production of smaller, higher density boards with fine-pitch ball grid array (BGA) and chip scale package (CSP) components. These are:
- Fine-pitch Vision Alignment Option for more precise alignment for boards with ultra-fine pitch devices
- Enhanced functionality to Teach Custom Ball Grid Array (BGA) Devices for 2D Inspection and store these device patterns in a device library for easy retrieval
Two additional enhancements, which provide for improved process monitoring and reduced operator Mean Time to Assist (MTTA), are:
- Offline programming capability using CAD or Gerber data via Aegis Industrial Software Corporations CircuitCAM Machine Programming software. CircuitCAM Machine Programming modules radically reduce machine programming time for through-hole and surface mount production, inspection, and process machine interfaces.
- Off-line monitoring capability using iMonitor software, a feature-rich reporting and performance analysis tool, providing completely browser-based remote monitoring by station, machine, line, factory or the entire enterprise – over a Web or network connection. iMonitor is also available from Aegis Industrial Software Corporation.
In addition, the software release now meets the newest industry standard for information transfer - XMLprotocol. The CAMX interface enables the software to seamlessly communicate printer operation messages to a host computer for system monitoring as well as provide for the easy interchange of data with other XML-based software throughout the production facility.
The enhancements provided by our latest software upgrade strengthen and broaden the production, operational, and communication capabilities of the AccuFlex system as the leading printing solution delivering maximum efficiency, quality, and throughput for the SMT industry," said Bob Boyes, product manager for MPM Printers.
The software upgrade is available immediately for both new and installed Speedline MPM AccuFlex printers. For more information, contact your Speedline distributor or representative. Reach Speedline Technologies at 1-508-8520-0083 or http://www.speedlinetech.com
