Essemtec's jetter improves equipment efficiency
Swiss manufacturer of production systems for electronic assembly and packaging, Essemtec introduced its Scorpion high-speed jetter at SEMICON West 2013.
Essemtec says its Scorpion fully automatic jetting system improves overall equipment efficiency.
Throughput is maximised with piezo jetting valves which enable the jetting of fluids over a wide range of viscosity with speeds of up to 800 Hz.

Wastage of expensive material is minimised with a fluid box of less than 150 nanolitres. There is no tubing to connect the fluid to the jet valve and hence messy cleaning and maintenance operations are minimised.
Essemtec says setting up new recipes is quick and easy with the latest eDIS software which also offer context sensitive help. Point and touch features are intuitive to learn and programming of dots, lines or various shapes is a breeze, while CAD import is also supported. Processes are developed in no time thanks to a library of "best known parameters," for a wide range of common fluids.
The Scorpion system can equip up to four valves or pumps, including jet valves, Archimedian screw valves, time pressure valves and slider valves to accommodate virtually all applications. These include encapsulation, dam-and-fill, underfill, LED cavity, conductive adhesive, solder paste, phosphor silicon cavity fill and more.
