AccuID™ is a SMT component reel barcode label reader. The system is a bench top unit that can read multiple barcodes in any orientation all in one frame. Base on the user defined prefix of each barcode or a script to parse any 2D barcode label, the system sorts the barcode into entities such as Part Number, Date Code, Lot Code and Quantity. User can also print barcode labels from the application.

The system come with basic function to output entities as a sequence of keystroke into users’ existing applications. For more complicated applications, a user interface is offered to allow maximum flexibility to write to custom data base or to interface with MES and ERP systems.

AccuID™ is perfect for creating unique ID (license plate) label for placement equipment component verificaiton system and incoming label verification to minimize wrong label being applied onto reels of SMT component.

AccuLiFT™ is an automatic reel storage system using the traditional Vertical Lift Module (VLM) design concept to achieve high storage capacity while minimize machine foot print. A person is no longer required to manually feed the reel storage system one at a time or manually load reel pallet one reel at a time. All the users need to do is to stack 30-100 reels onto multiple stacking units and the robotic arm will pick up the reels from the stackers and place them into the storage system. The storage system is designed with a double pallets in/out buffer for loading and unloading so while the robot is working on one pallet, the extractor will store and retrieve parts for the next pallet.

Maximum storage capacity of 8,300 reels of SMT component reels represents the highest density in component storage system today. Automatic barcode reader identifies each reel before it is put away into the system to maintain accurate inventory. Also included are Barcode label applicator on output side and Flexible software for MES integration. Users can drastically reduce component kitting time and still maintain inventory accuracy.

Pulsed heat hot bar reflow soldering is a selective soldering process in which two solder plated parts are pressed together and heated to a temperature adequate to cause the solder to melt and flow, after which the parts are cooled to form a permanent electro-mechanical bond.

Pulsed heated soldering differs from traditional soldering because the reflow of solder is accomplished using a heating element called a “thermode” which is quickly heated and then cooled down for each connection resulting in strong joints.

Pressure is applied throughout the entire cycle resulting in precise positioning. It also makes the process suitable for parts that might otherwise disconnect during cool down. Hot bar reflow soldering is also a good choice for applications that require multiple connections to be made simultaneously. Hot bar reflow soldering processes are reproducible, quantifiable, and traceable to quality standards such as ISO / NIST. Hot Bar reflow soldering is safe, highly operator-independent and easy to automate.

ACF/ Heat-Seal Bonding

Heat seal bonding – also called ACF bonding – is the process of creating electrical conductive adhesive bonds between flexible and rigid circuit boards, glass panel displays and flex foils with very fine pitch (<30 micron). The essential characteristics of this process are heating and cooling of the adhesive under pressure.

Heatstaking

Heatstaking is a method of joining two or more parts, where at least one is made out of plastic. The bond is made by partially de-forming the plastic part to fix the other. Heatstaking is the most efficient way to bond metal to plastic, and is commonly used in high volume/low cost applications in the automotive, telecom and appliance industries. The process works by heating the plastic to a temperature above the glass transition temperature via the use of super-heated air or a thermode, and then applying pressure in order to deform it and create the stake. The plastic is then cooled down again – under constant pressure – below the glass transition temperature, ensuring good fixation of the parts. This cooling can be done with compressed air if using a thermode, or with a cold, preformed tool if super-heated air is used.

AMADA WELD TECH offers a full line of reflow soldering power supplies, bonding heads for benchtop use or for integration or automation, thermodes, and both standard and custom systems for reflow soldering, heat seal bonding and heat staking.
