Fast digital imaging ensures precision
A powerful vision system is at the core of every efficient and effective
placement platform. Europlacer developed its own vision algorithms in the
1980s to analyze QFPs. In atom, that ground-breaking process technology has
evolved to deliver exceptional placement accuracy without impacting speed
or throughput.
The Pulsar heads use up to eight digital vision stations, located strategically
within the atom platform structure. During the pick-to-place trajectory, Pulsar
heads fly over the high-resolution camera in a digital vision station, imaging
components up to 13mm x 13mm in size on the eight nozzles in one shot,
without stopping the head.
On the Tornado-8 turret head, integrated digital vision technology analyzes
components up to 50mm x 50mm on the fly, during the placement trajectory.
An optional high-resolution fixed camera is used by the Tornado head to
inspect ultra-fine-pitch components, µBGAs and flip-chip devices. It is also
used for components larger than 50mm in size to maintain precision for
devices up to 99mm x 99mm.
