Naprotek Installs optical control Component Counter
San Jose, CA — Naprotek has pur- chased and successfully installed an optical control OC-SCAN® CCX.3 SMD counting machine for control-
exact inventory knowledge, the com- pany has increased its productivity. Monitoring and controlling in-
ventory is critical for the production process. The CCX.3 X-ray system simplifies the electronic manufactur- ing work and gives exact precise con- trol of inventory, and as a result, helps keeps lines running. The CCX.3 component counter
accommodates reels, tubes, JEDEC trays, and cut strips. Its average cycle time is approximately ten sec- onds. This reduces Naprotek’s manu- al counting time to nearly zero, with
only minimal loading and unloading by the operator. Each item is dis- played on the screen with the associ- ated count, and the operator can in- crease the field of view to double- check and assure accuracy of individ- ual parts being scanned. The addi- tion of this machine reduces the han- dling and manual counting of parts, giving Naprotek a massive increase in throughput in the material, kit- ting and receiving process. The new unit provides cutting-
edge capability for the company’s stockroom and greatly enhances its
material handling process. Some of its key advantages are the lack of any programming requirements and ease of use. What used to take hours to count now can be counted in min- utes, saving valuable time that can be devoted to other, critical inventory management tasks, and giving Naprotek the ability to reconcile in-
ventories for its customers Contact: Naprotek, Inc., 90 Rose

KwikTic Exhibits New Smart Factory Software
Wigan, UK — KwikTic has released a number of new features to enhance its smart factory MES software, in- cluding KwikScheduler, a stand- alone, integrated production schedul- ing and tracking module. Kwik - Scheduler allows the user to plan across multiple lines, sequential route steps and multiple processes for a range of product groups. The program organizes production plan- ning, while providing real-time progress feedback. Not only for SMT, the software
is useful across a range of industries, including manual assembly, mechan- ical and box build assembly, test, packing, etc., guiding operators with simple correct paperless instructions at the right time to boost efficiency and reduce mistakes. Real-time performance, pro -
gress and quality information is pre- sented through a range of dash- boards and drill-down reports. The software is designed to be easy to use and foolproof, for a more reliable process throughout.
