March 25, 2016 | Speedline Technologies, Inc.Estimated reading time: 1 minute
Speedline MPMs’ new Edison printer received the 2016 New Product Introduction (NPI) award in the stencil/screen printing equipment category. Announced by Circuits Assembly at the recent IPC APEX® trade event in Las Vegas, winners were recognized for leading new products in electronics assembly equipment, materials and software.
The award was presented to Speedline Technologies’ Mark Clemons, Business Unit Manager – Printers, during a ceremony on Tuesday, Mar. 15, 2016 that took place at the Las Vegas Convention Center exhibition center in Las Vegas, Nevada during APEX.
The MPM Edison is an innovative new platform of next-generation printers sharing software, controls, and advanced technologies on a scalable platform. Featuring outstanding speed, accuracy, and performance surpassing best-in-class SMT printers worldwide, Edison is built to excel in every way, with patented features throughout its design. Edison operates at twice the speed and 25% higher accuracy than current printers, and delivers an unheard-of higher throughput than competitive printers –15 seconds total throughput, including printing and stencil wipe cycle. Edison delivers double the throughput of best-in-class printers worldwide.
Edison features built-in 8 micron alignment, and 15 micron wet print repeatability (>2 Cpk @ 6σ) proven through 3rd party Print Capability Analysis (PCA) testing. This represents a 25% improvement in wet print accuracy over current best-in-class printing machines. Edison performs superbly with SMT Fine Pitch solder paste printing for small apertures (<.3mm CSP’s, 01005’s), and Edison is powered by an intuitive, new software operating system, Intueri, that’s easy to set up and use.
