New Product Focus: VERSAPRINT screen printer from ERSA - SMT process responsibility and process control at a new level

摘要

At last November's Productronica, after just 20 months of development, ERSA unveiled its VERSAPRINT product line. This month ERSA launches the innovative technology in North America at the APEX 2008 show. This new line of screen printers represents ERSA's strategic commitment toward assuming greater process responsibility in the SMT production line. According to C.H. Mangin, almost 80% of process errors in the SMT line today are due to the screen printing and reflow processes. Accepting this fact, ERSA, which has been developing solutions for the PCB manufacturing industry for 87 years, set itself the challenge of attacking these process problems at their roots in order to take over complete line responsibility for these two critical steps. ERSA's strategic move into the screen printing area was a logical consequence and one that has now brought the VERSAPRINT technology into the marketplace.
