New Projects for WeftMaster Falcon-i in China and Taiwan

摘要

Loepfe Brothers Ltd.is increasing its backing of the electronics industry.The latest projects in China and Taiwan underline the importance of reliable quality control of demanding technical fabrics.Loepfe's unique WeftMaster Falcon-i will be integrated into two of the world's largest manufacturing lines of printed circuit boards(PCBs).One of the world's largest manufacturers of PCBs and other technical glass fabrics,operating several plants in China and Taiwan,occasionally experienced the tiniest unevenness on the surface of its PCB boards.Particular defects originated from exactly that woven glass fabric,eventually caused by minute filamentation of the yarn and the slightest fluff accumulation during the weaving process.By using Falcon-i optical sensors to monitor the weft insertion during the weaving process,such tiny yet costly defects could easily and reliably be eliminated.
