EP710

High Flexibility SMT screen printer

Europlacer’s EP700 printers combine the company’s commitment to high performance and reliability with outstanding value.

The platform has been developed to cope with the rigors of high volume SMT production. Yet it incorporates the flexibility needed to deliver the fast set-up and product changeovers demanded by low and medium volume operations working in high-mix environments.

Designed with ease of use, high-end performance and low cost of ownership in mind, the high flexibility screen printer utilises the most advanced drive control technology available, including 1 micron resolution linear encoders on all axes. A suite of intuitive software enables total control of the printing process.The printers are fully equipped, as standard, with many features such as automatic rail width adjust, auto stencil loading, a fully programmable Under Stencil Cleaner and even automatic stencil paste inspection.In fact, everything you need to complete the SMT screen print process without exception or compromise.The PCB transport system includes a fully programmable board stop and employs pneumatically controlled foil PCB clamping.The system is SMEMA compatible to ease integration with fully automated SMT production lines.

Vision System – Unrivalled accuracy

Exceptional repeatability and print accuracy stem from meticulous alignment.

Our patented Dual Roving camera (DRc) technology precisely aligns the board and stencil, and checks for solder paste presence on the stencil before printing.

DRc innovations include SmartCal, a zero-cost straightforward calibration facility that lets operators validate the process in 30 seconds or less.

SmartCal helps to maximise and maintain your process window, delivering optimum performance for the operational life of the printer.

Auto Dispense (ADu+)

The EP710 screen printer can deploy the unique Automatic Dispense Unit (ADu and ADu+) to dispense a wide range of media including paste and glue.

Automation

Features include closed-loop print head control, bi-directional board clamping and laser-guided tooling to ensure fast, efficient and accurate tooling support set up.

Durability – Quality Assurance

Our high flexibility screen printers are refined, robust, design-optimised products built to last.

Be assured that EP710 printers will perform identically in a decade as they do when new.
