AP430 Automatic Inline Stencil Printer
The AP430 is a high-precision, fully automatic SMT stencil printer with a print area up to 400 x 350 mm (450 x 350 mm optional). It accommodates stencils from 470 x 300 mm to 736 x 736 mm. Vision alignment from high-functioning cameras allows for quick PCB positioning. High-quality prints are guaranteed with the printer’s 4-point ball screw drive and programmable speed control for both the blades and stencil-PCB separation.

Simple Set-Up
The AP430 makes job set-up fast and easy; simply input the stencil size, insert the stencil into the frame clamp, and the system software will handle the rest. Be ready for the next production assignment in a matter of seconds.
Total Programmability
Our Windows-based equipment is easy to program, allowing your printer to be up and running quickly after install. All parameters, including print speed (programmable from 12 to 40 mm/s), stroke length, squeegee pressure, and more, are fully programmable via the graphical user interface. During operation, all details of the current job, including processing status, will be displayed on-screen for easy viewing.
High Throughput Rate
The machine’s dual-squeegee system is controlled by high-precision ball-screw drives with programmable transport speeds. Print pressure is uniformly and accurately controlled. Self-leveling squeegees automatically adjust to the stencil surface to ensure perfect registration on every print.
SMEMA Integration-Capable
The efficient single-stage PCB transport system is SMEMA-compatible for interface connectivity with the other production equipment in your assembly line.
Under-Stencil wiping
Automatic wet/dry/vacuum under-stencil cleaning is integrated into the AP430. The system can be programmed to clean the stencil using any combination of dry wipe, wipe with solvent (“wet wiping”), or wipe combined with a vacuum to draw material out from the apertures.
