From our booth at Productronica 2015

For the first time a single system is handles the full PCB product definition and production data, including image data. For rigid, flex and flex-rigid. It manages the images stack-up and material details, ERP material references, material characteristics, finishes, classes, and - most importantly - the production stages. It features an XML interface for input into ERP and PPS (Production Planning System).
Integr8tor is Ucamco’s automated client/server workflow system for the PCB industry. It automatically converts incoming customer data, calculates design characteristics and prepares the single PCB for CAM at industry-leading customers world-wide for almost a decade. Integr8tor is integrated with a variety of quotation, engineering and ERP systems.

Ucamco announces new Ledia models with 3 wave lengths

Ledia – optimising the light fantastic

September 25th 2015 - Ucamco is delighted to announce the new 3 Wavelength series of Ledia Direct Imaging (DI) systems for the accurate, high-speed exposure of the industry's most demanding soldermask, inner-layer and outer-layer resists.

When it comes to the direct imaging of PCB materials, Dai Nippon Screen's Ledia multi-wavelength UV LED DI platform has always led the field. First, with its 2 Wavelength Ledia imaging systems, Screen delivered unprecedented DI throughputs on even the most demanding inner- and outer-layer resists, and it gave PCB manufacturers the very first DI technology with which to process standard soldermask resists accurately and at production speeds.
