DEK Productivity Tools:
Everything you need for your printing solution
The right configuration for every job
High-volume production, high-mix runs of small lots, pin-in-paste, ultrafine apertures for super-small components, stepped stencils, PCBs with unusual substrates, many different paste types – no matter what your production requirements are and what processes you use: the DEK Neo- Horizon iX platform always accommodates the right configuration for your printing process.
Think beyond your current challenges. With the modular DEK NeoHorizon platform you can easily add DEK Productivity Tools in standalone machines or in our innovative DEK NeoHorizon
Back-to-Back dual-lane solution.
B2B setup: Flexible and dual-lane
With its three sections, the DEK High-Throughput 3-Segments Conveyor lets you move circuit boards into and out of the printing area simultaneously for even shorter cycle times. DEK NeoHorizon iX printers can be operated and maintained totally from the front. The DEK NeoHorizon BacktoBack setup makes for a uniquely flexible dual-track solution.
Dual-lane for twice the performance:
▪ Both units remain separately controllable, for example to run a different product on each track
▪ The units can be split up again at any time
▪ Full-size printing area
Faster cleaning, more throughput
The DEK NeoHorizon iX offers two modes for automatic understencil cleaning: the new IUSC, which is based on the established blue cleaning system, and the award-winning and much improved DEK Cyclone high-speed cleaning system. In the new DEK Cyclone Duo version, the fully configurable DEK Cyclone (wet, vacuum, dry, oscillation) requires just one cleaning cycle, which cuts the time and materials needed by up to 50 percent. And the cleaning fabric can be easily replaced via a cartridge. Both cleaning systems are controlled via the DEK Instinctiv software. In addition, the cleaning cycles can be invoked as needed by the operator after the DEK HawkEye inspection or via the DEK ProDEK option by external SPI systems.
