MYLabel PRM (proactive replenishment monitor) software improves uptime and ensures correct material delivery to the SMT assembly line. Gives immediate overview of replenishment needs. Replenishment requests are displayed in advance, preventing material shortage. Is integrated with an extensive material database. When combined with the automatic storage solution SMD tower, the replenishment process becomes completely automated. Component reels are delivered to the operators by a robotic arm, and the risk of providing incorrect material to the line reportedly is reduced to almost zero.

TS7000 series interchangeable material path rotary valve uses a feed screw to dispense fluid with a rotary displacement action. The modular design permits quick replacement of the feed screw/chamber cartridge assembly without the need to remove the valve from the machine. The valve housing is interchangeable to be used with TS5000DMP feed screw inserts. Is available in three feed screw sizes: 8, high output 8 and 16-pitch, all of which are made of precision hardened stainless steel. An encoder motor version is available for applications that require closed-loop motor control with encoder feedback. Typical applications include solder paste, die attach, surface mount adhesive, chip encapsulation, dam writing and thermal grease.
