Gasket Dispense Verifier Gasket Dispense Verifier
News 2007-11-24

    This is a laser-based gasket presence sense system that can work in conjunction with dispensing on ICP and CP systems by New Precision Technology. Based on a "learning" process, the software automatically builds a model of the part and compares the current scan to the model. If the scan fails and Quality Control determines it should not have failed, the scan is incorporated into the "passing" category and similar parts will not fail on future scans. Scans are possible at 5"/second to 12"/second and beyond, depending on the minimum defect to be captured.

  2. This is a failing gasket. Note the score of only 69.2% versus the 95% cutoff for passing. This analytical technique is fast and has an excellent signal to noise ratio.

Web-based system monitor Web-based system monitor
News 2007-08-06

    It is now possible to monitor factory dispense productivity across the web. Accessed through secure socket layer with 128 bit encryption, the members portal of the newprecisiontech (nptinc) website can provide detailed, up to the minute information on good parts completed versus bad, idle time versus down time, and operator productivity. This information can be used for purposes of line balancing so that underperforming hardware can be recognized and retasked, shift productivity assessment, and machine mechanical state (so that maintenance can be consistently scheduled). As well, it enables staff at New Precision Technology to monitor maintenance and assist with optimizing program efficiency.

News 2007-06-23

    This new subsystem allows DXF files to be read, layers and contours to be selected, and order of contours to be determined. It also allows for repositioning of contours to get the best inital approximations. Conversion from english to metric is also accounted for. The DXF reader allows for NPT programs to be built quickly and automatically.

    Although our machines typically come pre-programmed as part of an overall turn-key system, we offer training sessions that cover programming for a broad range of applications and we share our experiences that minimize operator training, minimize part defects, and maximize your return on investment. We have a simple pattern programming scheme that does not require G-code knowledge or specialized training. We also have available tools such as a DXF file reader and a Gerber file reader that allow simplified importing, and a coating application assistant that dramatically reduces programming time for conformal coating and paint application programs.

  2. An example output file. Area fill and line commands are used to minimize program size and increase readability. Up to four heads can be assigned with this tool.
