This is an all-in-on machine with scalability and the ultimate level of versatility necessary for increasing productivity for high-mix production.
It features functions for performing operation smoothly in a short time for the work that comes with introducing new production and changing the product models to produce.
The machine flexibly supports various production for users in a variety of sectors including EMS, automotive industry, and more.
High capability
Handles large panels and improves productivity with the simultaneous production of two models
Single conveyor configurations can support production for large panels up to 1,068 x 710 mm.
(Panels up to 1,500 mm width can be supported as an option.)
It is possible to produce two different models at the same time using a double conveyor, so the panel conveyance time is, in practice, zero. A wider scope of production is possible using twin robot specifications.
A DX head exchanges dedicated tools in one action depending on the part size, from small chips to large odd-form parts. A glue tool enables the machine to perform glue application in addition to part placement.
By loading DX heads and dedicated units into the machine, special processes such as glue application and flux transfer can be performed inline. This contributes to the reduction of incomplete products and removes the need for investing in dedicated equipment.
The machine caters to the placement of various types of parts, supporting from standard to large and odd-form parts, and by handling parts with clamp pressure control or by using various methods such as placing large connectors with pressure insertion.
This machine can be loaded with H24S heads for placing 03015 mm parts with an accuracy of ±0.025 mm. With the two head configuration, the machine can reach up to 80,000 cph using productivity priority mode.
A wide range of checks like the following can be performed using the Intelligent Part Sensor (IPS).
· Checks pickup and checks for parts remaining on the nozzle after placement
· Detects tombstoned parts
· Checks part heights
· Checks for upside-down leaded parts
The LCR check unit checks the electrical properties of passive parts (inductance coils, capacitors, and resistors) before placement. This prevents parts with the wrong properties from being placed, which cannot be checked based on exterior checks.
All parts are checked before placement to ensure that there are no warped terminals or leads on parts such as connectors and IC chips that can cause poor connectivity, preventing defective parts from being used. It is also possible to check for missing bumps on BGA and CSP parts, which cannot be detected after a part is placed.
The panel warp is automatically measured by a laser sensor before placement. Placement is only performed on panels that are within the set tolerance, so that producing on defective panels is prevented.
Excessive downward push and placing parts above the panel can be prevented by reflecting the part height measured by IPS to the placement point determined from the amount of panel warpage.
Furthermore, the low impact nozzle of Fuji's original design can prevent the collapse of solder and parts from becoming cracked.
Changeover time can be reduced by performing MFU batch changeover and by the machine having up to 130 slots for feeders which makes it possible to load all of the required parts.
Integrate 4 nozzles for multiple parts sizes (0603 (0201"), 1005 (0402"), 1608 (0603"), and 2125 (0805")) into three types (S, M, L). Because nozzles can be shared, the frequency of nozzle exchange is reduced and the cycle time can be improved.
Automatic data creation and on-machine editing using a large touchscreen panel supports ramping up new production and quick responses to sudden changes in parts and programs.
In addition, automatic data creation featuring ASG 2.0 (Auto Shape Generator 2.0) now covers even those parts with unique shapes that have not been supported in the past. This upgrade is also incorporated in the on-machine editing, the function to update part shape data on the machine, which further reduces the time required for adjustment.
