EFD(R) ProcessMate(TM) 3000 Linear Axis Workstation.Replacing Manual Solder Paste Solder paste (or solder cream) is a mix of small solder particles and flux. It is used extensively in the automated soldering processes wave soldering and reflow soldering. OperationsCoTripling Your Production LINCOLN, R.I. -- Third graph, second sentence should read: "...The PM3000 has increased our throughput by 300 percent." (sted: "...The PM3000 has increased our throughput time by 300 percent.") The corrected release reads: EFD EFD Event Forwarding Discriminator (TMN) EFD Enterprise Flash Drive EFD Education for Democracy (AEGEE) EFD Engineering Field Division EFD Engineering Field Division (NAVFAC) (R)PROCESSMATE([TM]) 3000 LINEAR AXIS WORKSTATION Replacing Manual Solder Paste OperationsCoTripling Your Production EFD's ProcessMate([TM]) 3000 is a turnkey solution that replaces inconsistent manual wire soldering processes. The workstation combines precise positioning Precise Positioning is a term used to describe techniques to obtain the location of an object to better than a few centimeters of accuracy. Historically precise positioning was associated with surveying and geodesy. , accurate dispensing of SolderPlus([R]) solder paste, and a hot air reflow (1) The process of heating and melting the solder that has been screen printed onto a printed circuit board in order to bond chips and other components to the board. Surface mount chips (SMT) use the reflow method. Contrast with wave soldering. See also reflowable text. system. By removing guesswork from the manual soldering process, the EFD's ProcessMate([TM]) 3000 Workstation eliminates operator variability, reduces rework and scrap, increases productivity and improves production yields, without the need for special training. "By removing inconsistencies in the deposit size, location and heat, the ProcessMate([TM]) 3000 will change how people approach manual soldering applications," says Keith Wheeler, General Manager, Solder Paste Group, EFD, Inc. According to Nicholas Meeker, CAM Automation Engineer, Tech Circuits, Inc., "The PM3000 has increased our throughput by 300 percent." EFD's ProcessMate([TM]) 3000 has the versatility to be used as a benchtop assembly station or as an integrated station within a larger automated process and is available in several configurations to meet a variety of application requirements.
