Compact 29 High Precision Screen Printer
( Please Note - This model has now been discontinued! Discontinued date 1st June 2006 )
Overview
The all-new Compact 29 represents a major advance in the technology and functionality of entry-level stencil printing machines. Providing adavanced features and user benefits previously only found in more expensive, advanced SMT printers. The Compact 29 deliveres unrivalled performance at an affordable price.
An easy-to-use Windows interface combined with state of the art microcontroller based servo electronics, provides precise repeatable control of all printer functions.
Low maintenance, low running costs and outstanding reliability makes the Compact 29 the ideal choice for a wide range of production envirinments.

Simple low cost maintenance
From its inception, the Compact 29 has been designed for minimal maintenance. The rack and pinion drive system and quality bearings of the print carriage require virtually no maintenance.
The power supply and motor control board are located in an easily accessible module at the rear of the machine allowing fast module replacement. A special menu is provided within the interface software to assist maintenance and thereby further reduce downtime and expense.
Absolute Precision
Exceptional printing accuracy, quality and repeatability are achieved using a dedicated state-of-the-art motor control system combined with a robust yet precise mechanical structure. The print carriage moves on hard-wearing, high-precision linear bearings. Outstanding print head stability is achieved by locating the print head in all four corners of the machine. Pinpoint alignment is achieved in a precision carrier provides exceptionally accurate screen registration.
Servo motor control of the worktable and print carriage, coupled with the stepper motor driven dual squeegee mechanism ensure unbeatable printing every time.
Snap-off speed and distance, so critical in ultra-fine pitch applications, is easily programmed and accurately controlled by the Compact 29. |
