Starter Lab line adopted by contractors and OEMs

Geared for production and training applications, the Starter Lab line from Manncorp is widely used by contractors and OEMs that require precision prototyping or low-volume SMT assembly.

It has also gained acceptance by numerous technical schools and colleges as a teaching aid.

The line includes three bench-top systems: a precision stencil printer, a computer-controlled pick-and-place unit and a lead-free reflow oven.

'PCB assemblers on tight budgets can now have a single-sourced SMT line with integrated lead-free and fine-pitch equipment,' said chief executive officer Henry Mann.

'The placer is the latest upgrade of our ECM-5611S with on-the-fly vision placement.

'It will place a wide range of fine-pitch devices on a 10.6in x 5.9in placement area and holds 24 8mm tape feeders.

'A computer with LCD monitor is also included.' The SR2100 stencil printer offers precision screw alignment to boards, X, Y and Theta adjusting knobs and double-sided board processing.

Frame capacity is 18in x 22in (470mm x 570mm).

The single-chamber 850 hot air convection reflow oven adjusts to lead-free temperatures up to 260C.
