ITW EAE’s recently-introduced MPM Edison Printer earned a coveted VA Excellent Award from the SMT China Vision Awards at the recent NEPCON China exposition and conference in Shanghai. The award was presented at the SMT China Vision Awards Presentation Ceremony, during NEPCON China, Shanghai, April 26, 2016.
The MPM Edison is an innovative new platform of next-generation printers sharing software, controls, and advanced technologies on a scalable platform. The Edison operates at twice the speed and 25% higher accuracy than current printers, and delivers an unheard-of throughput of 15 seconds, including printing and stencil wipe cycle. The printer features built-in 8 micron alignment, and 15 micron wet print repeatability (>2 Cpk @ 6σ) proven through 3rd party Print Capability Analysis (PCA) testing.
The annual SMT China Vision Awards program recognizes the people and products within the surface mount industry that serve as benchmarks of excellence. Products nominated are judged by a panel of well-known SMT experts and senior executives from downstream industry in China. Judging criteria focuses on Creativity and the Advanced Nature of the entries, and their contributions to the downstream industry to reduce Costs, improve Quality, increase Efficiency, enhance Reliability, and ensure Safety and protect the Environment.
