Supplied with a 40 or 80 component feeder with optional jumper wire, the compact supply unit configuration of the AV132 can fit both ammo pack and reel. The dual partition configuration enables a fast changeover. The next job can be set up while the current one is being processed.Capable of inserting components in four directions: 0°, 90°, 180°, and 270°, the AV132 optimizes productivity by simultaneously handling 26 and 52mm taped components and providing fast, full auto-recovery. The AV132 can reduce loading times by running two PCBs simultaneously, enabling efficient production due to a speed of 0.12s/component and a transfer speed of 2s/PCB.The fixed feeder unit and the out-of-component detection feature allow to replenish components while maintaining long-term non-stop runs.Preparation in advance or equipment operation during component change-over is possible.

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 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.

Mounting feed-forward function Components can be placed correctly based on the solder printing position. Placement skip data feed-forward/Block recognition data feed-forward Placement machine recognition time reduction based on feed-forward discrepancy data. Misplacement of components using a modular placement machine can be prevented based on feed-forward solder/land* printing defect block data.*When inspecting lands on which package components are placed using flux epoxy. Printing position data feedback The solder printing position misalignment is measured by the inspection machine. The positioning correction is transferred by means of feedback to the screen printer. The solder printing area is measured by the inspection equipment. The stencil cleaning direction can be compared with the reference value by means of feedback.

FeaturesThe Manufacturing Operations Optimiser (MFO) is a newly developed product for drawing up production plans required  for on-site  operations  to  reduce the man-hours needed for the production  plan  and,  at  the same time, to enhance production efficiency. MFO creates detailed schedules for productions and pre-set-up operations and calculates the required resources for production by simulating the manufacturing process  of  the  entire  SMT production floor.  By simulating the planned  production, the  MFO  answers questions about estimated  production  completion, indicates which  production  sequence is to  be  used for higher efficiency, proposes optimal machine set-up for higher efficiency, and indicates the number of staff needed to  achieve  the  plan.  MFO  models  the  required  production  line, taking  into  account errors that can occur at the production machines, such as parts exchange. It optimises production taking into  account multiple  production  lines.  The  off-line  set-up  sequence  can  be  optimised  to  adjust  the requirement  of  staff  and  material. MFO  support  is  not  limited  to  machines  of the NPM-series  but also  supports  CMand  DT-series  machines  and  screen  printers. It also supports non-Panasonic equipment such as SPI, AOI, reflow ovens, screen printers and others.

Panasonic manufacturing operations optimizer (MFO) is the line management system to create detailed production schedules including pre-set-up operations. Those production plans are mandatory to optimize manufacturing processes and thus improves cycle times and production efficiency. It also calculates the number of operators required by simulating the entire SMT manufacturing operation.  Image of the systemMFO provides clear and easy to understand plans for production, process set-up and operator management plus simulation reports.

Beside this, it provides various optimization function, like mounting process, production plan, production-set-up plan and operator count, including a table of function list and machines.
