We have been facing a general economic recession for the past two years, as well as the stagnation of Europe and America and the entry of new players in the world markets. How has Keko Equipment Com-pany coped with the new conditions?
TK: We have not felt the recession, we’ve increased the scope of our operations each year, and this year has been a record breaking year for us. We are present on all key world markets; therefore, it is easier for us to balance the issues from individual markets. However, one of the main difficulties has been facing the “weakness” of the US dollar; and that has been going on for quite some time now. Besides producing devices for the production of passive electronic components, we have expanded our operations into other emerging markets. We have also developed solutions in the green energy area; however, the subsidies in this area have dried up in the European market, which consequently led to the reduction of investments in this area. Green energy is obviously more of a political issue rather than an economic one, and without national financial support, the development has stagnated in this area. We are looking for market opportunities in new technologies and we also carefully monitor all trends.
JŠ: To be honest, this is more a recession of the west-ern world. Russia and China are facing great growth, and we have also made many steps forward in those regions. These are markets that are not considered as
“We provide complete solutions”
We interviewed Mr. Tone Konda and Mr. Jože Štupar, both directors of Keko Equipment, to ascertain their opinion regarding the current worldwide situation and how it has affected their business.
technological followers, but have become the top provid-ers of services in the fields of technology. We support producers in developing new products. We also apply our know-how in various fields of industry.
You have mentioned growth of Chinese and Russian markets. This means that your distribution network has also changed or expanded?
TK: We have been present in the Chinese market for a very long time; and now we are successfully entering the Russian market with a local partner. The reduced activity on the western markets makes these two markets of key importance for us. The distribution network is also expanding in other markets, and even though the EU and USA markets have seen a slowdown, they have shown positive growth compared to last year.
JŠ: One of the problems of the European market is that certain industrial branches very much depend on na-tional subsidies, and since that has decreased drastically, the investments also decreased. On the other hand, Rus-sia is strategically setting up and developing the industry of electronic components, where we have a lot to offer.
TK: Both markets, Russian and Chinese, are equally de-manding as all other markets. Any underestimation of those markets would get back at us, since both markets
have developed substantially in the past years, people are open and focused in foreign markets, and a dynamic and progressive atmosphere is present.
JŠ: Each market has its own cultural identity and specif-ics. They are quite demanding and specific about what they need so we try to remain flexible. Our advantage on the Russian market is that, as Slavs, we have a better understanding of each other. Unfortunately, the Russian market still faces many bureaucratic obstacles despite its progress. Chinese people are very pragmatic; how-ever, they are quite demanding negotiators, Europeans and Americans are traditionally known as demanding buyers as well, we are doing the best we can to satisfy each market and every customer.

Development has been mentioned many times. What are the key developmental goals of Keko Equipment?
JŠ: The drive of the development is production and not theory. The Chinese are very strong in this area; they are in constant contact with production.
TK: The ideas originate from customers who develop new products and require the technology for their produc-tion. Occasionally, we apply our solutions to other areas like pharmaceuticals, food industry etc. We are cur-rently (slowly) investing in additional production facilities
at our location in Žužemberk, and we are looking at the possibility of open-ing an additional production plant in China. The aim is to compete on vari-ous development-related tenders.
JŠ: We are seriously considering establishing an institute or R&D centre for the development of new applications based on our technologies, in this way we can offer greater support to our customers and their development, which is currently very popular in the Rus-sian market. Russians are becoming technologically independent, they want their own solutions, and they are becoming more demanding. We also wish to cooperate more with the Jožef Štefan Institute in Ljubljana. We are one of the world leaders for this type of equipment and technologies, but this is a highly specialised sector and the market is very limited, we are always looking for new applications for our machines in other industries.
How do you assess progress in the past two years?
JŠ: Progress happens on a daily basis and remains constant, it is difficult to speak about large steps; how-ever, development is constantly evolving. This year, our
production department has been extremely occupied due to a large number of orders received, so there are many ideas that have been placed on stand-by, and are awaiting reali-sation. We cannot consider develop-ment as isolated from other areas of work, since it is very much connected with other func-tions, our designers are not separate from production; they also put a lot of effort into what they do and are rewarded by seeing how their solutions are functioning in practice. Our activity is very specific and involves spe-cial knowledge; that means that each new development engineer needs to be trained separately. In the future we plan to also employ technical experts from abroad.
TK: Despite progress we stick to the basic concept, which is to provide complete solutions. Since we offer machines for the entire production processes, from the production of the ceramic tapes to the sintering of the ceramic packages, we are very good providers of services for production lines that develop new products. We take full advantage of any downturn in our industry by coming up with new ideas and products.
We have been present in the market for many years, the average lifetime of our machines is 10 to 15 years; so we feel honoured when customers keep coming back to us throughout the years when they need to expand or upgrade their production capabilities. Our basic ac-tivity remains the manufacturing of machines for the production of electronic passive components. Our staff includes many young experts, we are also experiencing an internal technological development and introducing a larger scope of CNC technology. Our plans are chal-lenging, but there is no reason why we could not realise them just as we have realised our plans so far.

Multilayer ceramic stacking principles
KEKO Equipment’s machines selection guide
Multilayer ceramic components are manufactured from single green ceramic sheets. The single layers are very accurately stacked to form a multilayer package; the machines that perform this operation are called stack-ers or collators. Keko Equipment produces a wide range of stackers, adapted to different component types and production requirements. In this article I would like to ex-plain the main stacking principles used by our machines and I would like to also offer some advice regarding how to select the proper stacking process and machine.Proper process and machine selection depends on several criteria like:
- Tape type: • Tape on carrier film (PET) • Tape without carrier (freestanding tape) • Tape on roll • Individual sheets- Tape properties: • Tape thickness • Tape taking properties • Punched / no punched • Other properties which may influence the stacking performance, e.g. formation of bubbles, brittleness, etc. - Component type: • Number of layers • Number of patterns • LTCC, MLCC, MLV, MLI, piezo, etc.- Production volume: • small, medium , large
Processing possibilities to build a ceramic stackThere are two possible methods:- Print on stack process- Separate printing, drying and stacking
Processes descriptions and machines selection guide
PRINT ON STACK PROCESS
Keko equipment is a leading worldwide supplier of print on stack technology and machines, owning several pat-ented solutions. Advantages:• Lowest production cost (tape stacking, electrode printing and drying is done in one machine)• Small footprint• Suitable for medium to large scale production• Possible to fill vias on thin layers• Possible to use freestanding tape, or tape on carrier filmDisadvantages:• Limited layer count depending on tape / print thick-ness ratio. (Larger ratio means more layers, smaller ratio means less layers. (The stack thickness is uneven at high layer counts and the printing quality deteriorates)• Limited number of printed pattern (max. 4)• Not a flexible process. It would take about the same time to build one stack than to build several ones. Main issue is the drying step.Generally, print on stack process is recommendable where products design does not change very often, for components with less 100 layers, and with less than 4 different prints in the stack. Products: MLCC (up to 100 layers, depending on tape thickness), MLCV, MLCI, Piezo ceramics, etc.Machines: Manual machines suitable for pilot or medium production. The production line can consist of sever-al manual machines. For smooth operation two op-erators are needed, one on the printer and one on the stacker. Individual layers are stacked and printed one by one un-til the full stack is built. In case different patterns are needed, multiple printers may be used.

SEPARATE PRINTING, SEPARATE STACKING
This is the most common approach to produce multilayer electronic ceramic components. Advantages: • Universal process suitable to produce most types of components• Stable conditions during printing and stacking• Highest layer count possible• Very flexible, suitable for small or large production volumesDisadvantages: • Difficult to handle tapes without carrier film• Difficult to fill vias on thin ceramic sheets• Higher investments cost• Larger production space requiredProducts:• all types of multilayer electronic ceramic componentsMachines:Here will be described the stacker based on the type of printed tape used. Tape on PET carrier, pre- printed, wound on roll
Applications: MLCC, MLCV, large scale productionKeko equipment is currently not offering a suitable stack-er to build stacks from a roll of pre-printed ceramic tape.
Foil on PET carrier, pre-printed, single sheet handlingTwo methods of stacking are possible:• Stacking a sheet (face down) on top of previous layer and then peeling off the PET film• Removing the PET film first then stacking a new sheet on top of a previous one
Machines for stacking first then peeling off the PET-film
SM-series: Basic stacker with pin alignment and man-ual PET film removal, it uses a uniaxial press for stacking. It is suitable for R&D or small scale production level where high alignment accuracy is not required. Heated upper and bottom pressing plates. Up to 2 mm stacking height. Up to 42 tons pressing force. Suit-able for inline installation with a printer for print on stack technology (previously described).
Automatic machines for medium and large produc-tion volumes are represented by our PAL-printing and stacking machine series. These machines have wide configuration possibilities adapted to particular produc-tion requirements.
The machine on the picture above is a basic PAL machine with one printer, one drier, and one automatic tape feeder from a roll. This machine is suitable for the production of components where only one printing pattern is needed, e.g. MLCC, MLCV or piezo components. The prints can be automatically shifted or rotated depending on the design of the component.The machine pictured below is a high end chip ferrite automatic production line consisting of automatic single sheet loading, vision alignment, two screen printers, two driers and cassette loading / unloading.
The output of this line may be over one million chip fer-rites per day.
Some features of this technology include: • The stacks are built on carrier palettes• The carrier palettes are transported from station to station (press, printer and drier) as many times as required depending on the number of layers needed.• Longer drying time increases the number of carrier palettes that can be processed with the same cycle time.

SW - seriesUniversal stacker designedprimary for LTCC, HTCC andsimilar applications. Wide range of options like:• Manual or fully auto-matic version.• Pin or vision align-ment• Possibility of stacking sheets face up or face down.• Possibility of pressing under a vacuum.• Vacuum stack fixing.
SB - seriesFully automatic version only. High output, short cycle time. Process takes place on several stages simultaneously. Vision or pin alignment.For large scale application like MLCI, LTCC, etc..Up to 32 pat-terns (sheets) m a n i p u l a t e d from cassettes. Process takes p l a c e o n 24 carrier pellets, transported step by step from sta-tion to station.Not suitable for tape thickness bel low 15 mi -crons and high layer count.Peeling of PET film first then stacking pressing sheet on top of previous layer
ST - seriesThe main advantage of using this approach is that it’s suitable to build stacks with a high number of layers using relatively thin sheets. It’s appropriate to produce MLCC, MLCV, piezo components, etc. This technology is not suitable to process punched sheets used in LTCC, HTCC and MLVI production.• Manual or automatic tape handling from cassettes.• Stacking on a carrier palette or (as an option) into a cavity.• Stacks of up to 1000 layers can be built (using a cavity) for piezo ceramic components.• Stacks up to 8 different patterns.
Conclusion
The stacking process has a great influence on the final quality of the product. Any issues from the previous steps are immediately evident during the stacking process. The results do not depend only on the machines; they also depend on the material and its condition. The most critical stacking properties are:• uniform tape thickness• low tacking forces• low release force of the PET film• minimum tape distortion during pressing• small tape shrinkage due to temperature• adequate tape air permeability• tape should not be too brittle• tape should accept some tension forcesThe tape properties define the stacking ability of the stacker; unfortunately, there’s no tape system that has all the ideal properties for stacking. It’s not always pos-sible to achieve high stacking quality without improving some of the ceramic tape properties, not even machine modifications can compensate for inferior tape proper-ties.In most cases, testing of the stacking properties for a particular tape is necessary. Keko Equipment’s engi-neers will offer advice or adapt the machine as much as possible to be able to process your particular material.On the next page there is a graphic showing the stacking machine selection guide, you can also use it to find the limits of a particular stacking method.Please also read my article regarding the influences to the stacking accuracy in our newsletter No.5

New developed multiple pin servo motor driven punching tool dramatically increases punching efficiency, punching simultaneously up to 50 via holes at once. Maximal punching speed of tool is 15Hz. Multiple tool punching is particular suitable for mass LTCC and MLCI production. Minimal punching diameter is around 80 micron.
Next to multiple punching too, we developed also servo motor driven single pin punching toot. Advantage of this tool is in quiet operation, less tool vibration at high speed what reflects in longer tool life time.
Limitations of conventional via filling methods are known. Not only thick layers and small via diameter are difficult to fill by conductive paste, also thin layers bellow 30 microns are extremely difficult to via fill, as via filling paste is pushed easy out of it. Avoiding this problem Keko equipment engineers developed reliable via filling process and machines for via filling thin tapes. Process is especially suitable for 100 to 5 microns tape thicknesses.
Process is suitable for low or high volume production and can be completely automatic. Contact Keko Equipment for more information.
