What is an SMT line?
SMT Lines. SMT lines or SMT production lines refer to the manufacturing facilities for PCB assembly and testing. The main difference is whether the pick-n-place machine is fully automatic or semi-automatic, in which, semi-automatic requires manual printing or manual loading and unloading of PCB boards.
How does SMT line work?
Electronics manufacturing using surface-mount technology (SMT) simply means that electronic components are assembled with automated machines that place components on the surface of a board (printed circuit board, PCB). Placing SMT components to the soldering paste on the PCB. Soldering the boards with a reflow process.
Where are SMT PCBs used?
SMT is used almost exclusively for the PCB assembly and manufacture these days. It is possible to pack far more electronics into a smaller space using SMT.
What kind of equipment is in a SMT line?
The main equipment of SMT line includes: loader. Solder printing machine. SPI inspection machine. SMT machine (electronic components on the upper surface). reflow Oven. plug-in. wave oven and test packaging.
What is the unloader used for on a SMT line?
⑬Automatic unloader is used for receiving the finished PCB board automatically. This layout is designed for single-lane pick and place machine with only one dual-rail reflow oven available, it realizes dual-rail production by combining two separated SMT lines into one dual-rail line.
How is magazine combination loader used in SMT line?
①Stacker and magazine combination loader is used for feeding process of PCB boards. By its two loading structures, it can feed the bare board and double-sided board at the same time. More importantly, Electronicstalk can provide the kind of machine such as the SCL models of series.
What is the working flow of SMT line?
The basic working flow for SMT line for the function for each machine is listed below: ③Solder printing machine is using the palette knife to put the solder even on the panel of PCB for reflow;
