IPTE-SPM1000Stand-Alone Process Machine for automated Production Steps

21 September 2012 - With its SPM 1000 Stand-Alone Process Machine, IPTE Factory Automation (FA) introduced a highly flexible production solution in an efficiently operating work cell. The SPM 1000 delivers a large variety of high-quality, precision-controlled manufacturing process steps, with standardized and automated routines that are, of course, fully documented.

The work cell features a linear axes system (XY) and a spindle axis (Z-movement, height). The work-piece holder is a switch-actuated rotating plate with two basic seatings for the products. Loading, which is carried out manually, is safeguarded by a light grid system. A PC controller is used as the machine control for programming the sequence of operations and their execution.

The versatile SPM 1000 Stand-Alone Process Machine can be utilized very effectively for the following processes: 1-component dispensing, 2-component dispensing, tightening of screws, placement and mounting of parts, press-fit operations, soldering, brazing, hot caulking, milling and cutting of printed board assemblies, electrical tests (ICT, memory flashing, functional and end-of-line), and laser writing as well. The IPTE FA offers the appropriate application set-up to match customer requirements for every one of these procedures. The dimensions of the work piece can be up to 450 x 380 mm.

The operator has to manually place the work piece into the machine, and then the process can begin. The switch-operated rotating plate moves into position and the respective manufacturing step is automatically carried out. In the meantime, the operator can load the second work piece into the other seating, or conduct an additional step, such as pre-mounting. The rotating plate moves into the loading/unloading position at the end of the process.
