Orbotech Demonstrates Latest Solutions for Expanding
10.11.09

Productronica–  Orbotech S.A., is presenting, in Booth #221, Hall B2, the Company’s latest solutions aimed at helping European bare printed circuit board (PCB) manufacturers expand their business opportunities.

Being introduced for the first time is the Paragon™-SM 20 Laser Direct Imaging system, a high accuracy, fast throughput solution for imaging Solder Mask layers. .Based on Orbotech’s field-proven Large Scan Optics (LSO) technology, Paragon-SM 20 ensures high yields and lower cost per panel while satisfying tight registration accuracy requirements with dynamic imaging modes.

Also being demonstrated is Orbotech’s PerFix™ automated optical repair (AOR) system, Sprint™-8 inkjet legend printer, Discovery™ OLB automated optical inspection (AOI) systems and InCAM™, the new comprehensive, high-precision computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) system for HDI and IC substrates developed by Frontline PCB Solutions.

“Our European customers require proven production solutions that not only advance their technological capabilities, but do so with highest efficiency, quality and cost-savings“, said Mr. Yoav Harel, Orbotech’s President for Europe and North America. “We are pleased to be presenting at the show many of our latest innovations that can help manufacturers in the region expand their business opportunities today and be prepared to successfully compete for future orders as they materialize.”

Orbotech’s “Expand Your Business Opportunities” program features solutions for PCB manufacturers to achieve greater levels of productivity and performance. Highlighted are latest capabilities in Laser Direct Imaging (LDI), laser plotting, inkjet legend printing, Automated Optical Inspection (AOI), Automated Optical Repair (AOR) and CAM/Engineering for mainstream and high density interconnect (HDI) applications.

About PerFixAutomated Optical Repair (AOR) System

PerFix AOR is a fully automated optical repair solution for shorts and excess copper. For the first time ever, PCBs that in the past had to be scrapped can now be automatically repaired and saved. Featuring Orbotech's breakthrough, patent-pending CLR TechnologyTM, (Closed Loop Repair), PerFix employs advanced image acquisition and image processing combined with superior laser control. PerFix achieves highly accurate, repeatable and reliable results - any time, every time - which are not possible with manual repair.

About Sprint-8 Inkjet Legend Printer

With its unique UCI technology™ (UV Curing Integrated), Sprint-8 delivers the highest quality legend imaging with fast speed at the lowest cost of ink per print for all PCB applications. Sprint-8 printers deliver new innovations for inkjet legend imaging. With its high-performance print heads and electronics, Sprint-8 can image even the most challenging legend jobs efficiently and accurately. Sprint-8 operation is simple and easy, requiring only minimal training. Key benefits include significantly reduced cycle time, yield improvement with minimized handling requirements, and improved operational efficiencies – all while realizing major cost savings.

About DiscoveryOLB AOI System

Powered by Orbotech’s field-proven SIP Technology™, Discovery OLB is optimized for advanced

Quick-Turn-Around (QTA) PCB production and First Article Inspection (FAI). Discovery OLB is an

intelligent and powerful AOI system with a unique on-line verification bridge that enables both inspection and verification to be performed on the same machine.

About InCAM

InCAM is a comprehensive, innovative CAM system for HDI and IC Packaging PCB manufacturers that combines editing and analysis with automatic design-for-manufacture optimization to perform high-precision CAM tooling, with maximum efficiency and speed - helping manufacturers achieve lasting profitability and a competitive edge. InCAM supports yield growth by enabling operators to multi-task and run advanced processes in the background, using computer's multi-core CPUs capabilities. Cycle time is dramatically shortened as colleagues team up on jobs in a data-secure, collaborative environment. InCAM delivers improved data integrity and fault indication by allowing interactive post processing on selected DFM results. In addition, InCAM operators can enjoy a streamlined user interface and remarkably easy-to-use tools.
