PCB industry momentum is booming, but the status quo of automation is not satisfactory, many manufacturing processes are still manual, such as drilling process of loading and unloading, welding process, plate maintenance and FQC link. Small batch, multi-size, multi-type plate factory and sample factory cluster, in addition to many old factories in the industry by high cost factors, low level of automation.
The realistic predicament and development trend of PCB industry force enterprises to make rapid changes.
On the one hand, part of the surface treatment process, there is a small amount of chemical smell, may harm the human body, so the need to replace manual automation equipment; On the other hand, with the development of 5G, intelligent vehicles, Internet of Things and other technologies, the requirements of PCB layers, precision and complex process make it impossible for manual to meet the requirements, so more professional and efficient automation equipment is needed.
Due to the development and customization of many processes, it is difficult to achieve full automation in PCB industry, but using more intelligent equipment to reduce manual workload and error rate is one of the development trends of PCB process equipment in the future.
So in PCB industry, which processes can be automated? Ren Pengju said that in the process of copper sinking, electroplating, exposure, development, etching, film removal, AOI detection, the robot can be connected with each process equipment, to achieve continuous dropping.
In terms of PCB product structure, the market size of rigid board is the largest, in which multi-layer board accounts for 45%, followed by HDI board. According to the load and size of PCB products and the different requirements of automatic wiring equipment for multi-joint robots, Eft launched the automation solutions of multi-type load robots. Support a variety of size, layer type PCB board, support single position, double position, multi-position and other layout forms, support the installation of reverse and formal installation, to provide customers with the overall solution of industrial robots.
Around the current PCB industry automation wiring equipment and detection equipment mainstream demand, Eft customized developed ER15-1400/ER20-1100 robot products, with high beat, high inertia, high rigidity, high ease of use, high protection, at the same time, the load can also be compatible with 20kg.
High beat -- Considering the signal trigger and waiting in advance, the ER15-1400/ER20-1100 robot controller applies the trajectory planning technology, which can execute the adjacent two points coherently under the condition that the signal can be satisfied, reducing the speed loss caused by delayed waiting, and further improving the comprehensive beat. At present, the comprehensive beat of the products is better than the mainstream brands in the market, which can further enhance the capacity of customers.
High moment of inertia, PCB is width rectangular plate, place the position requirement, usually need a robot J6 axis quickly adjust attitude, big inertia load of J6 axis have a high demand, some imported brands robot developed robot application 1 year in a row, J6 joint burning motor and gear box damaged phenomenon, in view of the future trends and the existing state, We will increase the inertia of 6 axis to 0.7kg.㎡, beyond all the mainstream manufacturers, to ensure the beat, inertia and durability of PCB automatic wiring equipment.
High rigidity - thanks to the mature application of finite element topology optimization technology, it has lighter weight and higher rigidity, and the running stability is superior to previous similar products.
High ease-of-use -- 1) Based on excellent structural design and optimized internal pipeline design, the installation area of the robot base is reduced by about 40% compared with previous models, reaching the size of desktop, which is suitable for the application scenarios with demanding installation space; 2) At the same time, compared with competitors, the robot control cabinet is smaller in size, supports horizontal and vertical installation, and has low space requirements. It can be placed under the conveying line of 3C industry and in the cabinet of small workstations in PCB industry; 3) ER-Factory, a 3D simulation programming system with independent intellectual property rights, makes equipment debugging and programming more convenient.
High protection -- the use of joint unique double sealing technology, to achieve the IP67 level of high protection, but also can effectively avoid internal lubricant leakage, so that customers rest assured, to avoid losses.
A number of performance features set the Eft apart from other vendors. Peng-ju ren said that as China's first industrial robots for the main business of the whole industry chain kechuang board listed companies, Mr Delft will unswervingly around 3 c and intelligent manufacturing PCB industry demand, to provide more competitive industrial robots overall solutions, continuing to create long-term value for clients, the power industry automation and intelligent upgrade.
