OTTAWA, Ontario, CanadaProcess Photonics (PPI) announced that it has launched a new generation of laser machining systems for high performance, high volume manufacturing environments, the FP1000. Other models in the FP Series of laser-based manufacturing tools are also available now.
 
FP1000 features include:
 
·          APS (active pulse shaping) for superior process quality.
·          High-performance motion and laser beam control for rapid, accurate panel processing.
·          Windows operator interface, fully automated self-calibration and part alignment.
·          Optional automated material handling.
·          Fast job programming and changeover for prototype work.
 
The FP series of products are said to be capable of high-speed processing of rigid board and flex materials, as well as green ceramic tape. Programmable processes include via drilling, skiving, cutting and routing. They are designed to interface with the customers’ manufacturing floor, industry standard file formats and data logging requirements.  Reportedly sophisticated software allows the machine to be easily adaptable to small-lot, high-mix, and high volume production requirements.
 
 “Customers need maximum productivity on the manufacturing floor,” said Bill Young, director of Sales and Marketing for PPI. “We provide more than that with a high-performance, high-reliability manufacturing tool and years of process knowledge.”
