Assembléon Nabs SMT Product of the Year Award
July 8, 2005 |Estimated reading time: Less than a minute
PALO ALTO, Calif. — Frost & Sullivan recently awarded Assembléon with the 2005 SMT Product of the Year Award, recognizing Assembléon's A-series product line, which reportedly can place almost all components in a machine. The Frost & Sullivan Product of the Year Award is presented each year to a company that has demonstrated excellence in new products and technologies within its industry, and has shown innovation by launching a broad line of emerging products and technologies.
The end-of-line A-series allows the user to scale up production without taking out the machine or adding new ones, and offers placement speeds up to 150,000 cph. Apart from the low, 20-min. downtime for high-mix, frequent-changeover assembly dispensation, it is said to also have 99.87% pick reliability. The system can handle miniature packages such as 01005s to 45-mm² units with accuracy. Its ability to place components at 30 µm at 3 sigma is made possible by a camera and laser, aligning each component from pick to place, and ensuring that it has left the nozzle for the slotted position on the board.
