Mar 24, 2008 The DEK technologies on show at Nepcon Shanghai will reflect the company�s commitment to its Expect More philosophy, featuring technology breakthroughs designed to consistently deliver more value, productivity and innovation. One of the major examples of this on the DEK booth will be the brand new Photon Vi platform, engineered to deliver unprecedented large area precision printing. Readily achieving fine-pitch imaging for large board products up to 16.5lb (7.5kg) and 25.4� x 24� (610mm x 610mm), Photon Vi is an ideal solution for the production of advanced technology backplanes, solar and fuel cell panels and multiple substrate printing.
By visiting the DEK team, Nepcon Shanghai visitors will discover the leading-edge motion controls, position sensing technologies and optimised printer frame at the heart of the Photon platform. In addition to Photon Vi, the DEK team will further demonstrate the inherent flexibility of the Photon platform by introducing visitors to several other ground-breaking configurations. Delivering a breakthrough productivity advantage, Photon Dual Lane allows manufacturers to double their output from a line by deploying two printers in configuration. Dramatically boosting throughput on a reduced line footprint, Photon Dual Lane will be featured alongside a standard Photon printer, equipped with a whole host of Productivity Tools.
Among these technologies, the Photon display will feature DEK�s proven ProFlow� enclosed print head system. Accommodating the industry�s growing emphasis on miniaturization and speed, ProFlow significantly improves throughput, enhances process capability and lowers material consumption. Offering significant cost savings over conventional high-speed dispensing systems, ProFlow not only dramatically extends pre-placement efficiency, but also delivers extensive environmental benefits and exceptional ease-of-use for operators.
Continuing the theme of high productivity, the DEK team will also be demonstrating the HOZ 02i print platform on booth 1B30. Rapid setup and changeover capabilities make HOZ 02i the perfect solution for prototyping and first article build at full-production yield levels. Also on the DEK booth, the company�s first in-line platform, ELAi, will highlight the multi-award-winning Cyclone understencil cleaning system and breakthrough HawkEye� high speed print verification options. Other booth highlights include DEK�s popular VectorGuard� stencil system including the newly-released VectorGuard Platinum for ultra fine-pitch printing, in addition to precision screens and a comprehensive range of high quality consumables.
