Glassboro, NJ — One of the largest growth sectors in electronics engineering is LED technology. The latest market forecasts predict a turnover of more than $33 billion in this segment this year. In 2017, LED technology accounted for 22 percent of artifi- cial light. In 2022 it is anticipated to be 63 percent. M.A.L. Effekt, based in Bebra, Germany, is

one successful company in the LED business. But, the company is increasingly under pressure from larger players and global competition. To differen- tiate itself, the company focuses on five key as- pects: high production levels and fast reaction times; investment in new technology and equip- ment; deep and close customer relationships; gen- erating customer-specific solutions; and specialty products that other companies cannot produce. One of these specialty offerings
is LED long boards up to 6 ft (1.8m) in length. This is a niche product that only a few providers can offer. Together with Essemtec, the compa- ny developed a state-of-the-art long board production solution for PCBs up to 6 x 2 ft (1.8 x 0.6m) in size. They also developed a transport system to meet the high quality re-

has been a problem. Good quality long board sten- cil printers are hard to find and expensive. Es- semtec solved this problem by incorporating a sol- der paste jet valve within the pick-and-place ma- chine. The entire process is conducted inside the SMT mounter, which also saves the stencil print-

SPS-5A solder paste mixer.
cially for non-intrusive mixing of sol- der paste in cartridges. The cartridge can be taken from the refrigerator to the screen printer in approximately 10 minutes. Safety interlocks include a door switch and lock, as well as an unbalanced motion detector to stop the system when abnormal vibration occurs. The SPS-5A can store up to 10
condition settings, and the digital timer can be set in 10-second intervals. The mixer uses a pseudo-planetary mixing method. Automated operation provides an even consistency of solder
paste for viscosity and temperature. Contact: Seika Machinery, Inc.,
