MY500 jet printing flexibility for higher profitability.

Start saving time, improving quality and productivity – instantly.With greater PCB design flexibility, more precise

solder paste placement and complete off-line

preparation, the MY500 offers you a vast array of

ways to improve your profitability.

First of all, because you can jet print a wider

range of PCB designs, you can immediately im-

prove the service you provide to current custom-

ers. Perhaps more important, you can also attract

new customers such as high-technology companies

who demand higher-density PCBs that have a

wider mix of fine-pitch and large components.

Off-line programming allows changeovers to be

accomplished in seconds. So every production run

can be started and completed as efficiently as

possible. The MY500 jet printing process allows

you to control solder paste deposits with preci-

sion – in three dimensions. You can fine-tune the

volume, area coverage, height and layers of solder

paste that need to be applied for every individual

pad, component and package. If adjustments are

needed, or a customer order is revised, simply

change the print program.

The freedom of improved process control.For SMT manufacturers, as in all high-tech indus-

tries, the less on-line operator involvement that’s

needed, the easier it is to achieve and consistently

maintain higher levels of quality. For convenience,

and to minimize chances for error, any operator

can run print programs approved for production.

At the same time, to maintain a high degree of

flexibility, MY500 printing programs can easily

be adjusted at the off-line station if revisions are

required.

Because machine settings are automatic,

process engineers can concentrate entirely on the

deposit design and location. The ability to inspect

and repair the printing result if necessary reduces

the risk of mistakes and the amount of rework –

which in turn leads to increased profitability.

The barcode on the solder paste syringe and id

chip in the cassette also ensures the right type of

solder paste, within its due date, is selected.

Touch screen control enables

fast and easy operation.

Mix small and large compo-

nents - the MY500 frees your

PCB layout possibilities.

Simply import CAD data,

convert and go.

Touch screen control allows you to virtually eliminate setup and changeover times.MY500 solder paste application offers 3D design freedom.

With the MY500, switch from leaded to lead-free solder paste within seconds.

Select cassette. Set your program. Start printing.

No harsh chemicals for

cleaning makes the MY500

more environmentally-friendly.

Solder paste from respected

and reliable partners is avail-

able for the MY500.

”Drag-and-drop” makes it

fast and easy to adjust deposit

designs.

To maximize uptime during every production

run, the MY500 solder paste syringe features

the ease and speed of “snap-to-machine” load-

ing. This allows you to quickly refill paste when

needed or switch from lead to lead-free solder

paste in seconds.

No tools are needed to change the solder

paste cassettes. Simply release the snap lock,

remove the old cassette and snap a new one into

place. The electronic id barcode label and cas-

sette memory makes machine settings automatic

as well. Once the paste code type is entered

in the software program, you’re ready to start

printing again.

Because the touchless Jet Printing Technol-

ogy applies no force to the PCB, no support pins

are needed. Plus, the print program automatically

aligns and adjusts to the board stretch based on

the fiducials.

In addition, the cassette calibration and tem-

perature control ensures that the proper viscosity

of solder paste can be constantly maintained –

which in turn leads to higher levels of applica-

tion accuracy.

Save time – no stencils to order, wait for, change, clean or store.Because the MY500 utilizes Jet Printing Techno-

logy, you and your customers can see immediate

savings in time and costs. Changes can be imple-

mented at once, when adjustments in existing PCB

layouts are needed or when new production runs

are initiated.

Instead of waiting for a new stencil to be

shipped, you simply enter the new CAD data in

the software and set up a new program. No sten-

cils also means there is no cleaning necessary. That

not only saves time, it makes the work environ-

ment healthier for operators because no harsh

chemicals need to be handled.

Make adjustments on-the-spot, in three dimensions.

The MY500 features an easy-

to-use two-dimensional inspec-

tion and repair functionality.

Improve service by respond-

ing to changes and customer

requests in minutes.

You can fine-tune print results

during production runs.

Once the production line is set up and the first

board has been inspected, you may determine

that the printing on the PCB is not up to your

specifications. With the MY500, you can quickly

and easily fine-tune the solder paste volume on

one or more pads to get exactly the results that

are needed.

You can print large deposits very close to

small deposits. You can also print droplets on

top of each other, creating ”towers” to achieve

the thickness that’s required for each individual

component. With the MY500, the system can

automatically determine if solder paste is present

on a dot location. If not, it goes back to make

any necessary repairs.

Or, if your customer requests a revision in the

design of a board, you can prepare it for print-

ing simply by setting up a new program off-line.

If all of the components are on hand, produc-

tion can resume immediately. It’s flexibility such

as this that the MY500 provides that can quickly

improve your overall productivity – and potential

for higher profits.

The MY500 actually learns on the job. Because production parameters are automatically

set in the program, operators are free to con-

centrate on the high-quality results that MY500

provides – instead of spending time analyzing the

best way to set up production runs.

And if a job is set up differently than what

the software suggests, the jet printing system will

also learn from your process knowledge, based on

your selections. The MY500 remembers your selec-

tions for a particular package or customer and will

display this as the first suggestion the next time

you set up another production run for the same

customer or with the same package.

MY500 Jet Printing Technology features on-the-fly printing.

Adding the MY500 to your line is easily done – and

helps you quickly improve the quality and through-

put on every production run. For flexibility, you can

add jet printing to accompany the printer you may

now have in-line, or operate all of your printing

tasks from the MY500 alone.

With modular conveyors connecting the printer

to your pick-and-place machines, you can prepare

your line to accompany a wide variety of board

sizes. External conveyor solutions, including buffer

conveyors, workstations, telescoping gates, loaders

and unloaders and turn units can also be utlized

to construct an in-line system that is designed to

perfectly fit your production needs.

Because all setups are accomplished off-line,

for both printing and placing components, the time

needed for changeovers across the entire MYDATA

production line is virtually eliminated.

Planning for tomorrow – it’s how MYDATA has always workedAs new technology continues to make inroads into

SMT processes, the MY500 is poised to adapt to

new ways of working as well. For example, design

enhancements are now being developed and test-

ed to provide the MY500 with even more flexibil-

ity. This will allow SMT manufacturers to continue

to expand new levels of service for customers in

both traditional industries as well as those devel-

oping new uses for PCBs in emerging markets.

Maximum efficiency. Improved quality. More

throughput at the end of every production run.

The flexibility to adapt and anticipate changes

in the types of orders your customers will place.

These are just a few of the many ways the MY500

can add a positive impact to your bottom line.

Maximize production by putting the MY500 in-line today.

Boosting your bottom line profitability

is always top-of-mind with MYDATA

engineers.

The MY500 increases production flexibility by perfectly synchronizing with MYDATA MY-Series machines for in-line production systems.

Printing pads for components

such as 0201s right next to

connectors or CBGAs, is easily

accomplished.

The MY500 increases your design

possibilities with the ability to

apply solder paste in layers, stacking

one solder paste deposit on top of

another.

Verified printing results with

inspect and repair functionallity.

Add-on-printing on

pre-printed boards.

Mixing large and small deposits of

solder paste can reduce the need for

hand-mounting components.

Closed system - no solder paste

will be exposed for oxygen

before it is placed on the pad.

If a customer sends in last minute design

revisions, all you have to do to make a new

print program is import their new CAD file

into the MY500 off-line software, and make

the necessary adjustments.

Programs will be stretched

and aligned according to

PCB fiducials.

Printing for pin-in-paste

components.

A large volume of solder paste

can be placed less than 0.2 mm

apart from a small volume of

solder paste.

No support pins are needed since the

Jet Printing Technology is touchless

and applies no force to the PCB.
