CPM press-in machines

CPM 2001/s - press-in machine with a graphical user interface

The CPM 2001/s is the latest state of the art press-in machine. Optimised for pressing-in components into both daughter cards and backplanes, the machine is fully programmable and offers greater flexibility with a shorter set up time.

Different component heights can be stored and recalled later by simply using the "go/press" button. A TFT flat screen with WindowsTM based software continuously displays all relevant information to the operator (connector position on the pcb, press-in forces etc.), thus consequently eliminating errors. A barcode reader recognises all pcb data and corresponding process programmes. Companies with multiple manufacturing sites can continuously equip and update machines with the latest programmes developed ba specialists at their headquarters. The reliable and unique press-in method "autosense" offers outstanding security for processes, as pcb tolerances and connector types are recognised and taken into consideration automatically.

The CPM prestigepress-in machine with a graphical user interface

The CPM prestige is a consequential development of the successful CPM 2001 press-in machines. The excellent design, supported by a wide range of tools presents a convenient, easy and comfortable way of populating backplanes and daughtercards. The machine is fully programmable and is supplied with a graphical user interface for control and visualisation of the complete process.

The use of a microprocessor control allows the recognition and storage of different component heights, so that the pressing-in of different components is initiated simultaneously with only one button. The user-friendly touch-screen guides the user through the menu-orientated process controls. The visualisation of the entire press-in process (the position of the connector, press-in forces etc.) allows the rapid recognition and eradication of the possible error sources. With the addition of a barcode reader (1D and 2D) the parameters of every pcb layout can be stored, recalled and loaded into the automated press-in programme. The extensive operation monitor functions simplify the service and support of the machine.

The machine employs the automatic switch-off system “autosense”, known worldwide for its reliability. The different connector types and the tolerances of the pcb are automatically recognised and taken into consideration at the press-in operation, thus maximising the process security.
