OVERVIEW

The latest generation of mobile electronic appliance are requiring increasing functionality and performance in less space with lower weight, and this is driving further miniaturization of electronic components and higher chip ratios. These factors plus shorter product life cycles and increased production are fueling a demand for electronic parts mounting machine that support greater productivity and higher density mounting. Hitachi High-Tech Instruments Co., Ltd.'s new modular direct drive mounter "GXH-3" provides even better performance than the GXH-1S that it replaces. The "GXH-3" not only provides the highest throughput of any placement machine in the industry of 95,000 chips per hour, it also delivers increased high-density mounting reliability thanks to new soft mounting nozzles and PCB height measurement feedback function. To extract the full potential performance from the system, the GXH-3 also features optimization software and multi-product line balance software enabling clients to create optimum production data tailored to their production lines.
