PGMA - Panasonic Guided Manual Assembly helps to enhance manual assembly

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 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.

The RG 131 is the successor of the RHSG. By supporting 3/4 pitches, expanding the range of board sizes and increasing component insertion rate, this high-density radial component insertion machine increases productivity. High speed insertion at a rate of between 0.25s and 0.6s per component can be achieved, even for large-size components with 3-pitch (2.5mm/5.0mm/7.5mm) or 4-pitch (2.5mm/5.0mm/7.5mm/10.0mm) configurations. A comprehensive self-correction function ensures high reliability. With large numbers of component supply and dual-partitioned component supply units, long-term operation can be obtained. A total of up to 80 types of components can be mounted. With large numbers of component supply and dual-partitioned component supply units, long-term operation can be achieved easily with the RG131. A total of up to 80 types of components can be mounted, with up to 32 (16 + 16) types of large components. The two separate component supply units enable components to be exchanged and replenished during operation. Panasonic offers also the RG131-S platform version with smaller footprint. Higher productivity expanding board size range and increasing component input.

The Stencil Printer SPV-DC enables high efficiency dual lane production in a compact design. The printer is designed for high speed production without changeovers. To reduce running costs the SPV-DC is equipped with the award-winning paperless cleaning function. Solder paste can refill automatically. Solder mask and the final printing result can be verified with an internal inspection. With the machine-to-machine-communication option the SPV-DC is using correction data to correct positional printing errors. The high-speed printer SPV-DC can print on board sizes from 50 x 50mm to 350 x 300mm. With the dual lanes the printer provides a cycle time of 13s, including transfer, positioning, recognition, high-precision printing and respective cleaning. Due to the non-stop changeover, the SPV-DC allows you to prepare the next production while running the printing process.

The NPM-VF is equipped with a double portal. The SMD and THT components are placed by one placement head per portal. A wide variety of vacuum pipettes and grippers are available. The pick and place machine can be used in single or dual lane mode. The NPM-VF reaches a speed of up to 4,500cph and can process component sizes from 5x5mm up to 130x35mm and 60mm height. Active cutting and clinching tools are integrated which detach THT components from the radial and axial feeders. Clinching directions as well as pin lengths per THT component can be defined via the assembly program. Beside the radial and axial feeders, the NPM-VF can be equipped with all common standard feeder systems for SMD components. The flexible NPM-VF is an ideal machine for cycle-optimized production, especially for companies that must process both types of components due to the increased demand from power electronics for THT assemblies. This efficient pick and place machine contributes to reduce manpower requirements and to consistent production with high productivity, flexibility and high-quality pick and place results.

The Panasonic UA3P profilometer series is designed to measure aspherical lenses & molds, semiconductor wafers, and any other precision component requiring nanometer level accuracy ranging up to 200mm x 200mm. Different machine models are available to meet your optical & high aspect ratio metrology needs. The UA3P-300, UA3P-4 and UA3P-5 all offer users the accuracy of AFM technology with the measurement range of a CMM. Our unique approach uses atomic force probe technology in the stylus and HeNe laser-based interferometric XYZ axis positioning. Couple this technology with a solid granite-base and you have a robust metrology system that can be used on the factory floor and still deliver 0.1um level total uncertainty.
