The use of standard interfaces for all heads (aswell as feeders and cameras) maximizesequipment utilization and provides anupgrade path for future growth, ensuring protection for your capital investment. Thiscommonality enables Universal todevelop new options to enhancespeed, accuracy, and flexibility, significantly improving theperformance of the GSMPlatform with minimalimpact on the investment inthe basic machine.

Component PlacementThe key to the great flexibility of the GSMPlatform is the easy interchangeability of thevarious component placement heads. Thismodular design allows the GSM Platform tohandle the full range of components andquickly respond to changing product mixes.The ability to use different heads simplifiesline balancing and enables true mixed technology applications, expanding theprocess range of your entire line.

Vision/InspectionVision recognition and processing is criticalfor accurately placing leaded and areaarray components, from small chips tolarge connectors, as well as chipscale packages (CSPs) and flipchips. With such a broad range ofcomponents available for use ontoday’s board designs, machinevision capabilities are more impor-tant than ever.

The GSM Platform supports twoupward-looking cameras, as well as on-the-head camera inspection with certain heads,reducing travel distances tocamera stations and thereby allowing theGSM Platform to handle a wider range ofcomponents at faster speeds. Multiple cameras enable you to combine differentmagnifications on the same machine, seamlessly handling everything from chips toCSPs to connectors.

Adhesive DispensingA Universal GSM Platform machine equippedwith dispensing heads works well with bothmixed-vendor and dedicated Universal lines toboost speed and increase versatility—aspects vital to success in high-speed, high changeover assembly environments.

Dedicated dispensers can suffer utilization levels as low as 20%. In contrast, the GSM Platform can easily be retooled to combine component placement with dispensing capability. Dispensing heads can be exchanged quickly to meet a variety of assembly demands and offer maximum performance. For example, a GSM Platformconfigured with a placement head and a dispensing head becomes a true mixed technology machine, presenting a wide arrayof manufacturing options that increase overallline utilization and throughput. This reducescycle times, generating a return on investmentin as little as three months.

Universal’s newest head technology, theFlexJet Head offers the best mix of flexibilityand speed for most surface mount applica-tions. The head accommodates high speedchip placement and fine pitch componentplacement of 0402 chips to 50 mm squarecomponents. It uses seven on-the-head camera CCDs to inspect components up to 25mm square during travel to the PC board, thuseliminating the need for a separate Upward-Looking Camera inspection step.Larger components up to 50mm square areinspected using an Upward-Looking Camerato perform “vision-on-the-fly.” Seven spindlesare arranged in 20 mm spacing for full gangpicking from 8 mm and 12 mm feeders.

The Archimedes Metering Valve (AMV) dis-pensing head features direct drive technology,which effectively eliminates uneven clutchapplication times resulting in dot diametervariations. It is based on encoder-driven rotaryscrew technology with a closed loop servocontrol, offering precise control that enablesmultiple dot sizes with one spindle. This sig-nificantly decreases downtime related to dotdiameter setup.

It is an ideal choice for SMT glue, solder paste,silver-filled epoxies, and other particle suspensions. Offering excellent flexibility indot size and material range, the AMV head isparticularly well-suited to high-mix/high-changeover production lines where maximumflexibility of dot size is required.

The Dot Inspection Station provides all the necessary tools to perform material dotinspection. This feature automatically calibrates adhesive deposition and verifies dotdiameter and placement during production. It can be utilized during production mode or prior to production mode to assist the operator with the setup of a particular dot size.

This feature allows the machine to move the dispense head to an inspection area and dispense a pre-determined row of dots.Once the dots are dispensed, the beam positions the PEC camera over the dots so they can be inspected. Automating this function dramatically reduces applicationproduct errors.

The material dot inspection feature is includedin the UPS 4.2.1 software release and encom-passes the following software functions:• Dot Setup Assist• Dot Inspection• Production Dot/Head Calibration• Production Dot Purge• Component Dot Check• Component Dot Purge

Specifications Vision/Inspection

Upward-Looking Cameras accommodate frontand back lighting for component inspection.For front lighting, the inner LED banks arestrobed as the vision system captures thefront image of the component. For back lighting, the back light towers strobe the twoouter LED banks, illuminating the special backlighting nozzle. The vision system captures thesilhouette of the component. Back lightingcannot be used with components that requiremultiple fields of view.

The circular lighting camera provides a 360°low angle lighting scheme for optimal illumination of component features, such asPLCC socket leads, BGA bumps, and standardthrough hole leads. Circular lighting applications should be reviewed by theUniversal GSM Platform ApplicationsEngineering Group due to the elimination ofcomponent back lighting capability and theelimination of two extra feeder slots (one oneach side of the camera).

Standard and Circular Upward-Looking Cameras

For components up to 32 mm square (1.25"),the GSM Platform performs vision inspectionwith Upward-Looking Cameras in a singlefiled of view using “vision-on-the-fly” technol-ogy. It can pick components and pass over an Upward-Looking Camera at 20" per second.While the head passes over the camera, the vision system captures componentimages. The head then places the componentsat the vision-adjusted coordinates.

For components that do not fit into a single field of view, the head stops over theUpward-Looking Camera, then captures multiple fields of view to acquire the entirecomponent image.

Upward Looking Cameras UsingVision-on-the-Fly Technology

The GSM Platform supports two Upward-Looking Cameras, one in the front feeder areaand one in the rear. Two cameras reduce thetravel distance to the camera and allow theGSM Platform to efficiently handle a greaterrange of components.

The On-Axis Lighting (OAL) camera buildsupon the capabilities of existing front and circular lighting cameras by incorporating illumination and software specificallydesigned to enhance the imaging of highlyspecular packages, such as BGAs, CCGAs, andpalladium-leaded components.

From a hardware standpoint, the OAL camera provides on-axis illumination toobtain crisp images. From a software standpoint, three enhancements aid in processing CCGA components:• Missing column inspection: inspects various

area-array packages for missing columns.• Pitch inspection: verifies the distance

between component columns or bumps.• “Sweet spot” lighting: provides maximum

illumination of the component area being inspected.

On-Axis Lighting Camera

This camera offers vision-assisted placementof odd form and light electromechanicalassembly components. Available in a standardmagnification of 4 mils per pixel, it employs aspecial “cone” cover. The cone helps direct thelight in such a way that the ends of odd formcomponents can be seen. The cone opening isonly 1-1/8" wide.

The PEC Camera is used to inspect fiducials,pad sites, and bad sense marks on the PC board prior to component placement.Fiducial inspection information is then used tocorrect component placement locations for X, Y, and θ shifts related to board location, aswell as linear board distortions such as stretch,shrink, and non-orthogonality.

The PEC Camera is mounted under the beamin the GSM Platform overhead gantry positioning system: under the one beam in theGSM1 (Single Beam) Platform, and under bothbeams in the GSM2 (Dual Beam) Platform.

Standard Pattern ErrorCorrection (PEC) Camera

This advanced system is an innovative lightingsolution that provides high-contrast imagingof a wide variety of ceramic and polyimide flexsubstrates. It is uniquely capable of distinguishing features from the substratebackground, by providing the flexibility to easily select wavelength; polarized, unpolar-ized, or cross-polarized lighting; and an innerlighting ring for higher-angle illumination.

The UniversaLight module’s symmetric illumination creates sharp edges and goodcontrast, reducing “noise,” and its use of blue,rather than red, light provides large differences in light absorption characteristics– resulting in high contrast imaging.
