PNC Invests in Two Pick-and-Place Machines from Juki
January 13, 2017 | PNC Inc.Estimated reading time: 1 minute
PNC Inc. recently purchased two pick-and-place machines from Juki—the KE-3020VXL and the KE-3010XL.
"2017 is going to be a year of significant investments and improvements," said PNC President Sam Sangani. "These equipment acquisitions are just the beginning."
Both of the machines have extensive capabilities including accepting boards up to 22” x 24” and supporting both electronic and mechanical tape feeders. The KE-3020VXL and the KE-3010XL can hold up to 160 8mm feeders making them capable of handling a high number of placements to reduce changeovers. They can also place a component as small as 01005. A 6-nozzle laser head capable of achieving an IPC9850 speed of 17,100 CPH will cut down even further on PNC's remarkably short turnaround. Additionally, the laser-guided component centering feature allows for unprecedented precision.
"We're not only investing in our future, but our customers’ future, by supplying them with the highest quality product, at the most favorable price," Sangani said. "We continually strive to show our customers how committed we are to our Mission Statement of continuous improvement."
