OLEC AT-30 with AccuTray AutoAlign Imaging System for Automatic Film Registration ~ Integrated cameras optimize film image registration by recognizing film features and drilled holes in panel.  Both top & bottom films are adjusted automatically. Dimensional changes caused by atmospheric conditions and process effects are compensated within a pre-defined margin to render superior results across the entire panel.

 Excel offers Electroless gold (ENIG) as a plating option.  Our gold plating line was designed and built by Catalin Pal, our in-house maintenance manager.
 
LANTRONIC Circuit Technologies  Hot Air Solder Level (HASL)
HASLc.jpg (31145 bytes)LANTRONIC Circuit Technologies  Hot Air Solder Level (HASL) system submerses large panels after resist application, in molten solder.   After a brief dwell, the panel is extracted vertically.  Two "air knifes" use hot air to remove excessive solder from the non-metallic surfaces.
 
 

Probot QC 2000 Flying Probe electrical tester 

 probot_01.jpg (85401 bytes)

Probot QC 2000 Flying Probe electrical tester ~ Accepts CAM generated NET-LIST information. Moving test probes check each circuit and tests for "opens" and "shorts" to adjacent circuit networks, at a rate of up to 2000 tests per hour.  This system is ideal for quick-turn & prototype orders. Since a rigid fixture does not need to be built, cycle-time is reduced at a cost saving, which is passed on to YOU.  Errors are logged for statistical process control.

 X-RAY analysis for Nickel, Gold, and Copper thickness verification - just one of many important quality assurance procedures.

 

 DP2500

dp_2500.jpg (161967 bytes)

 DP2500 automatic vertical double-sided screen printer coats both sides of panel simultaneously with liquid photo-imageable ("LPI") solder resist.  All parameters including squeegee speed, pressure or computer regulated for consistent coating thickness.
 

 Pumice scrubber

pumice_01.jpg (210761 bytes)

Pumice scrubber uses fine pumice based solution  to clean panel surfaces for superior solder-resist ("mask") adhesion. This is a very safe alternative to acid-based  cleaning methods such as "micro-etch" baths. Oxidation is effectively removed from bare copper or other finish surfaces, as well as incidental chemical residues or other contaminates.
 
Gerber/Barco Photoplotter
