February, 2020 ASM: More Productivity with Self-Optimizing Printing
Suwanee, GA — ASM is presenting the latest gen- eration of its self-learning expert system for print- ing process optimization. The ASM ProcessExpert consists of the ProcessLens 5D SPI system and the ProcessEngine real-time expert software. ProcessExpert measures the solder paste
deposits and controls and optimizes the printing process completely autonomously, while learning with each print cycle. When new products must be introduced, the expert system also determines matching printing parameters almost instantly and runs virtual prints to check whether and with which parameters a stable printing process can be ensured for a particular stencil design. Electronics manufacturers will also be
pleased to learn that they can move to this smart future in stages by first running the extremely pre- cise ASM ProcessLens 5D solder paste inspection system as a classic SPI system before upgrading it

to the ASM ProcessExpert with the ASM ProcessEngine software. Even with the basic ASM ProcessLens sys-
tem, ASM is setting new standards in the area of modern, high-precision inline SPI technology. Where other systems reduce productivity by trig- gering unnecessary line stops as a result of meas- urement inaccuracies, the ASM ProcessLens reduces such effects to a minimum with its precise and intelligent measurement system. Like other high-end SPIs, the ASM
ProcessLens employs the moiré fringe pattern method, but with an entirely new digital technolo- gy. The stripe patterns for the optical measure- ment are not generated with rigid piezo grids, but digitally and flexibly with a processor chip that holds over eight million micro-mirrors. Its unique advantage: the grids are not rigid.
By changing the mirror settings, additional pic- tures can be taken. This enables the system to operate with extreme precision and a larger meas- urement area — up to 1,000 µm without compro- mising the height resolution. For the camera positioning,

ASM uses high-performance drives from its high-end semiconductor manufacturing solutions. The result- ing x/y positioning accuracy of 12.5 µm is, reportedly, the best among SPI systems. The system also offers mul- tiple light sources for shadow-free measurements. ASM ProcessLens can even
operate in dual-conveyor mode. The system combines 2D and 3D meas- urements and compensates PCB warpage in doing so. This allows a fast and precise measurement. The number of false alarms is massively reduced. Adding the ASM ProcessEngine
real-time software, which stores all SPI measurements and learns from each print cycle, turns the ASM ProcessLens
into the ASM
ProcessExpert. The expert system replaces the traditional, reactive process control with its machine stops and operator assists with a totally autonomous machine opti- mization system. ProcessExpert analyzes the
printing results in real time, deter- mines corrective measures, and transmits these to the stencil printer before productivity and quality are jeopardized. For example, cleaning cycles are no longer executed after a rigid number of print cycles, but in accordance with actual need. In most cases, this leads to longer cleaning intervals and improved line through- put, without affecting the printing
quality. Contact: ASM Assembly
