Parallel Lift System for Superior Print Quality & Throughput
The AP Series stencil printers feature a parallel stencil-to-PCB lift system that ensures uniform separation across the entire print area, delivering consistently high print quality even on demanding applications. By maintaining precise, controlled movement during the separation process, the system minimizes paste smearing, reduces defects, and supports accurate printing of fine-pitch components and complex board designs. This reliability not only improves yield but also shortens rework cycles, resulting in higher throughput and greater overall efficiency for modern SMT production lines.
High-Accuracy Vision Alignment System
All AP series printers are equipped with an advanced camera system that automatically align the circuit board to the stencil before each print cycle, ensuring fast setup and consistent results. This high-precision design enables reliable printing of fine-pitch PCBs with a repeat accuracy of ±0.008 mm, making the AP series ideal for demanding SMT applications where precision and repeatability are critical.
Dual-Rack Squeegee Printing System
The AP660 features a dual-rack squeegee system driven by high-precision ball-screw actuators with programmable print speed for consistent and repeatable motion control. Uniform print pressure is precisely regulated, while self-leveling squeegees automatically conform to the stencil surface to ensure accurate registration on every print. This advanced dual-rack design also optimizes solder paste travel, minimizing waste and improving overall process efficiency for reliable, high-quality results.
Integrated Under-Stencil Cleaning System
The AP660 features an automatic wet/dry/vacuum under-stencil cleaning system that ensures consistent print quality and minimizes downtime. The programmable system allows flexible cleaning modes, including dry wiping, wet wiping with solvent, or wet wiping combined with vacuum suction to effectively remove solder paste and debris from stencil apertures, maintaining optimal performance throughout production. Manncorp recommends using Zestron Vigon SC200 for cleaning solution.
User-Friendly Programming and Control
The AP660's Windows-based platform streamlines setup, allowing the printer to be fully operational within minutes of installation. Key parameters—including print speed, stroke length, squeegee pressure, and more—are easily configured through an intuitive graphical user interface. During operation, the on-screen display provides real-time visibility of job details and process status, ensuring smooth workflow management, precise control, and maximum efficiency throughout every print cycle.
