Optimum welding processes are achieved by utilising an integrated inverter power source within the robot controller, ensuring complete synergy within the common control system. This ensures that the established benefits and advantages of the existing TAWERS Fusion Technology are also now available for use for the range of MIG, MAG and DC TIG welding process.

TAWERS WG4 Arc welding system

The Panasonic arc welding robot cell PERFORMARC FW-3PD (with 3 external axes PanaDice) is of a modular concept, developed using standard reliable Panasonic components.

The RL132 combines functionality and speed with an insertion rate up to 25,700cph (.14s/component), a board processing sizes up to 650 x 381mm, a 33% reduction in PCB transfer time, up to 18% reduction in electrical and air consumption per insertion and an improved parts lifespan for a very low cost of ownership. This through-hole machine features a 4-pitch span and is configurable with 40 or 80 components inputs. Meanwhile, its dual split carriage enables machine function at exchange mode and parts replenishment during production. The RL132 was designed for a non-stop productivity. The Lead V cut method enables the RL132 to insert radial lead components at a speed of 0.14s/component. Either a 2-pitch (2.5mm/5.0mm), 3-pitch (2.5mm/5.0mm/7.5mm) or 4-pitch (2.5mm/5.0mm/7.5mm/10.0mm) option can be selected. The fixed feeder unit method and an out-of-component detection function allow ongoing component replenishment and long-term runs. PCB of 650mm x 381mm can be processed.

Plasma dicing is becoming increasingly attractive in the semiconductor market. Dies are becoming smaller and thinner and manufacturers are facing difficulties such as increasing material loss due to the width of the dicing line, mechanical damage to the dies from chipping and increasingly longer processing times due to line-by-line mechanical dicing. Panasonic’s APX300 Plasma Dicer solves these challenges and simultaneously provides a higher quality product with a lower cost of production. Features and benefits of Panasonic's APX300 Plasma DicerPlasma dicing requires a dicing street mask. After the mask is applied to the surface of the wafer and the dicing streets are exposed, the plasma process etches the exposed streets by a chemical reaction. By using a chemical etching process, a chipping-free and particle-free process is achieved. Thanks to the use of mask patterning, narrower street widths are possible – allowing more chips to be designed onto the wafer. Furthermore, the mask patterning allows complete flexibility in chip size, shape and position. The benefits of the Panasonic APX300 Plasma Dicer are: Particle-free and damage-free processHigher chip strengthYield improvementsThe Panasonic APX300 is available in a stand-alone single chamber (1 chamber) or a multi chamber (1, 2, or 3 chambers) configuration.  Panasonic can provide a plasma dicing total solution to achieve a damage-free, particle-free, higher throughput and lower overall cost of production. The Panasonic APX300 is CE certified. 

FeaturesThe revolutionary integrated  line  management  system  is  the basis for  controlling the  entire  production line. It  is  not limited  to  Panasonic machines but  also  integrates  third-party  equipment such as PCB transfer systems, laser markers, AOI, SPI and ovens. Conventional systems require a number of PCs to control different machine types from different suppliers. The iLNB controls the entire line with only one PC.  iLNB  significantly improves overall  productivity.  Production  data  and  production  changeover  of  all equipment, such as Panasonic’s placement machines as well as non-Panasonic machines including AOI, SPI, reflow  ovens  and  others,  can  be  controlled.  All  collected  data  are  transferred  to  a remote central computer. Small  errors such  as pick-up  errors  can  be recovered from  that  central  point.  Automatic production changeover is also possible. With the iLNB, users can manage automatic product changeovers and have an E-Link which provides an interface for information input and output, for machine control, management of components per feeder, and communication with a GEM/PLC. iLNB provides total control of the production line by interfacing between Panasonic and non-Panasonic machines, acting as one-stop channel. With the iLNB Users can manage automatic product changeovers and have an E-Link which provides an interface for information in- and output, for machine control, management of component per feeder and a communication to GEM/PLC. Automatic changeover Registration of automatic changeover recipeLine automatic changeoverAutomatic changeover monitoringLine operation monitoringE-Link interface for Information inputDownload / edit of scheduleE-Link interface for Information outputOperational information outputTrace information outputMachine status outputE-Link interface for machine controlMachine interlock; production start controlE-Link interface for feeder writeWriting of component data by an external systemCommunications to GEM/PLCSECS2/GEM communicationOPC communicationIO/RS-232C communication

The MD-P300 Flip-chip Bonder is process-flexible, combining flip-chip and thermosonic bonding in a single, small-footprint solution.The MD-P300 contributes to the cost-effective production (high yield, high throughput) of value-added devices. The MD-P300 can achieve high speed and high accuracy bonding through its low gravity point and lightweight bonding head. The MD-P300 supports 300 mm (12") wafers, and is an ideal solution for COB hybrid assembly in combination with an in-line Panasonic SMT placement machine.The MD-P300 is capable of fast cycle times and a placement accuracy of +/-5 μm at 0.5 seconds per IC (dry run) - with thermosonic processes at 0.65 seconds, including process times.

Building upon the PSX307 Plasma Cleaner, the PSX307A Plasma Cleaner features an enlarged plasma chamber capacity that improves productivity. In addition, the PSX307A system is able to handle full wafers (both bare and on dicing frames).  Besides the increased capacity, Panasonic's original Plasma Monitoring System suppresses abnormal discharges resulting in a secure and efficient production process.  Additionally, the option to include a traceability functionality  ensures high level process Quality.
