Used GETECH ALP #9080542 for sale

GETECH ALP is a PC board assembly and manufacturing equipment that provides a comprehensive set of features for the production of printed circuit boards. The system accurately and economically assembles printed circuit boards of all types, from single-layer boards to complex assemblies with multiple layers and interconnects. The unit uses vision, pick and place robotics, and soldering technologies to achieve the desired level of accuracy and quality. To begin the assembly process, ALP inspects the symmetrical and dimensional features of the boards for accuracy and detects shorts and opens. Pick and place technology is then used to select the components according to the customer aided design (CAD) data provided. The pick and place robots can accurately place components at high speed - up to 12,000 components per hour. In addition to soldering, GETECH ALP uses advanced automated optical inspection (AOI) technology to inspect each printed circuit board for defects. This consists of a two-step process: first, an infrared image is taken, then re-taken in visible spectrum, permitting extremely accurate defect detection and enabling detection of more types of defects than with the conventional single image machine. ALP also uses a unique process known as cold soldering to eliminate the need for pre-heating before soldering. During the soldering process, a special fluxing agent is applied, which allows components to be soldered with low heat and increased speed. An electron beam soldering tool is also employed to guarantee reliable and uniform soldering quality. Finally, as a finishing step, GETECH ALP applies conformal coating that is pre-determined by the customer's data. Conformal coating not only adds mechanical strength to the PCB, but it also protects it from humidity, dust, dirt, and other damaging elements. In conclusion, ALP provides a comprehensive solution to the assembly and manufacturing of printed circuit boards. Its combination of automated inspection, pick and place technology, cold soldering, and conformal coating offers unparalleled accuracy and reliability for the production of PCBs.
