Precise Optical Lay-up, Alignment and Welding of Multilayers
The PRS Direct Optical Registration System allows for optical lay-up of multilayers and sequential lamination build up technology. Three different processes take place in one unit; lay-up, layer to layer alignment and welding. This process eliminates the added tolerances associated with pin lamination.
ADVANTAGES
- Alignment and layer clamping are made in the same location, there is no chance for critical parts wearing and therefore greater accuracy is assured
- No need to pre-stack; this eliminates extra handling and possible damage to the cores
- After set-up, cameras are locked in position, resulting in greater accuracy
- Using the “Unique Target Layers” software allows the machine to mistake proof the build. If the operator places the cores out of sequence the machine will reject misplaced core
- Fixed focus lenses with over 8mm range of focus, lenses do not move for focu
- All slides and moving parts are designed to work in dusty prepreg environment
- No templates required, can process all panel sizes without needing to change any expensive parts, no tools needed
- Vision system checks position before and after clamping each core
- Operator loads core and prepreg at the same time on pre-load station
- Layers can be loaded with certain types of slip sheets if customer requires
- Programmable weld profiles, including ramp up, hold time and cool down. Similar to a press profile
- All PRS machines are fully compatible for future upgrading to work with the DataAlign Registration System. This includes the 10 camera CMS – Camera Measurement System. Layer data collection, networking and matching best fitting layers to each other for optimum alignment configuration`
MACHINE FEATURES
- The system will process all panel sizes from 305 x 355mm to 610 x 760mm (12"x 14"to 24"x 30")
- Simple touch screen controls
- Ideal for prototype, small volume and high mix production
