2.4.4 High-Pressure Fluids
High-pressure fluids, unless they are safely contained, are extremely hazardous. Always relieve fluid
pressure before adjusting or servicing high-pressure equipment. A jet of high-pressure fluid can cut like a
knife and cause serious bodily injury, amputation, or death. Fluids penetrating the skin can also cause
toxic poisoning.
If you suffer a fluid injection injury, seek medical care immediately. If possible, provide a copy of the
MSDS for the injected fluid to the health care provider.
The National Spray Equipment Manufacturers Association has created a wallet card that you should carry
when you are operating high-pressure spray equipment. These cards are supplied with your equipment.
The following is the text of this card:
WARNING: Any injury caused by high-pressure liquid can be serious. If you are injured or
even suspect an injury:
• Go to an emergency room immediately.
• Tell the physician that you suspect an injection injury.
• Show the physician this card.
• Tell the physician what kind of material you were spraying.
MEDICAL ALERT – AIRLESS SPRAY WOUNDS: NOTE TO PHYSICIAN

Injection in the skin is a serious traumatic injury. It is important to treat the injury
surgically as soon as possible. Do not delay treatment to research toxicity. Toxicity is
a concern with some exotic coatings injected directly into the bloodstream.
Consultation with a plastic surgeon or a reconstructive hand surgeon may be
advisable.
The seriousness of the wound depends on where the injury is on the body, whether
the substance hit something on its way in and deflected causing more damage, and
many other variables including skin microflora residing in the paint or gun, which are
blasted into the wound. If the injected paint contains acrylic latex and titanium dioxide
that damage the tissue’s resistance to infection, bacterial growth will flourish. The
treatment that doctors recommend for an injection injury to the hand includes
immediate decompression of the closed vascular compartments of the hand to
release the underlying tissue distended by the injected paint, judicious wound
depravement, and immediate antibiotic treatment.

Located at the top right corner of the system, the Light Beacon is a device that displays system status. The
Beacon has four different colored lights that can be constantly ON or flashing and has an audible alarm.
The colors on the Light Beacon correspond with the System Status LED’s on the Control Panel.
See Table 2-3 for an explanation of each color indication. The Light Beacon can be custom configured to
respond to the I/O states of customer equipment. See 4.16 Beacon Configuration.
" NOTE Software and hardware share control of the Beacon lights. Hardware-driven displays may
override those caused by software conditions and vice versa. Flashing light software
commands have priority over solid light commands.
For instance, if the software program dictates a solid yellow light and the hardware
detects low air pressure requiring a flashing yellow light, the Beacon will flash the
yellow light. A hardware-driven solid yellow light (for a door open condition, for
example) will be overridden by a software command to flash the yellow light.

3.7 Standard Components
3.7.1 Computer System
The Computer system consists of the Computer, Monitor, Keyboard and Mouse. It runs Easy Coat for
Windows XP (ECXP) software.
3.7.2 Easy Coat for Windows XP Software

Easy Coat for Windows XP (ECXP) is Asymtek proprietary software for use in a Windows XP
environment, developed specifically for Conformal Coating applications. ECXP controls both the
Dispensing Head (Robot) movements and the dispensing operation. ECXP features include:
• Internationalization
• Off-Line Programming
• Multiple Tool Selection
• Position Detection
3.7.3 Chain Conveyor (C-740)
The chain Conveyor, standard on the Century Series C-740 Dispensing System, transports the workpiece
into and out of the dispensing system. Operation of the Conveyor is automatic during production runs.
See Figure 1-4.
3.7.4 Board Pinning Assembly (C-740)
The Board Pinning Assembly features a Board Pinning Sensor and locates the board in terms of X/Y
location and rotation.
3.7.5 Tooling Plate or Adjustable Tooling Rails (C-741)

The Tooling Plate or Adjustable Tooling Rails secures the workpiece for batch system operations.
See Figure 1-4.
3.7.6 Integrated Safety Systems
The C-740/C-741 Series Dispensing Systems have a built-in safety system that automatically prevents
injury and damage resulting from Dispensing Head and Conveyor movement. The Integrated Safety
Systems consist of an Interlock Keyswitch, Interlock Door Sensors, an Interlock Recovery Light, Status
Indicator Lights, and a Light Beacon.
The Interlock Door Sensors detect if the dispensing area doors are open or closed. When the Interlock
Keyswitch is in the ON (I) position and a dispensing program is running, opening the front doors stops all
dispensing motion. This interlock shutdown condition is indicated by a red Status Indicator Light on the
Control Panel and by a red light on the Light Beacon.
" NOTE References that describe the front doors as “open” also pertain to situations where the
Light Curtain has been triggered by an intruding object.

When the Keyswitch is in the OFF (0) position, the yellow Beacon light is ON and the Interlock Recovery
Light is ON. Opening the Dispensing Area Doors in this state does not disable the dispensing system
motion controls.
The Interlock Key can be removed to prevent an inadvertent mode change. See 2.10 Integrated Safety
Systems for additional information.
CAUTION! Do NOT use the Interlock OFF mode during normal operation. Use the OFF
mode only when servicing or programming the dispensing system.
3.7.7 Light Beacon

The Light Beacon is a device that displays system status and is located at the top right corner of the
system. It has four different colored lights that can be constantly ON or flashing and has an audible alarm.
Refer to 2.10.4 Light Beacon for an explanation of each color indication.
3.7.8 Low Air Pressure Sensor

The Low Air Pressure Sensor is connected to the Main Air Inlet. If the pressure drops below a set point, it
triggers the dispensing system Safety Interlock. This feature is used to alert the operator of pressure drop
conditions that may occur in large facilities with a number of pneumatic devices.
3.7.9 Exhaust Vent Duct

The Exhaust Vent Duct (Figure 1-6) removes fumes from the dispensing area. A customer supplied air
duct must be connected from the dispensing system to the facility air exhaust system for the system to
operate. Refer to 4.11 Exhaust Connection.

3.8 Optional Equipment
Asymtek offers a wide range of options for fine-tuning your dispensing applications. This section
introduces options that are currently available for the Century C-740/C-741 Series Dispensing System.
3.8.1 Bar Code Recognition System
The Bar Code Recognition System uses a bar code label mounted on the workpiece to select the
appropriate coating sequence. The scanner, mounted on the conveyorized unit, reads the label, selects the
proper coating sequence within the ECXP software, and then executes the sequence.
3.8.2 Board Present Sensor
The Board Present Sensor, mounted on the Dispensing Head, registers the presence or absence of a
workpiece prior to dispensing. It initiates the coating sequence only when a workpiece is in place.
The Board Present Sensor is ideal for production environments where carriers are manually loaded. If a
carrier is not fully loaded, the system will detect the empty space and not dispense at that location. The
Board Present Sensor is factory configured at the time of system manufacture. It optimizes material usage
and minimizes cleanup.
3.8.3 Brush Box
The Brush Box mounts to the Conveyor and is used to clean the dispensing nozzle. The Brush Box
performs best with solvent-based materials, but can also be used with solvent-less fluids. Solvent is added
to the box, covering the bristles mounted to the bottom. At programmed intervals, the nozzle tip moves
back and forth in the solvent against the bristles to remove accumulated material. Advantages include:
• Automatic nozzle cleaning with minimal operator intervention.
• Improved dispensing consistency due to reduction of material buildup on the fluid applicator.
Figure 3-1 Brush Box

3.8.4 Dual Simultaneous Mounting Bracket
The Dual Simultaneous Mounting Bracket, mounted on the Dispensing Head, doubles dispensing
capability by accommodating two identical applicators side by side for simultaneous dispensing of a
single fluid. The two applicators are controlled independently by ECXP, enabling one coating sequence to
coat one or two products at a time. The system is configured for your specific application.
Figure 3-2 Dual Simultaneous Mounting Bracket
3.8.5 Dual Toggle Mounting Bracket
The Dual Toggle Mounting Bracket, mounted on the Dispensing Head, typically uses an SC-200, SC-300,
SC-105, or SC-205 Film Coater plus a needle type Dispensing Valve (such as Asymtek’s DV-03, DV-05,
or DV-09) to separately coat broad areas of the board, as well as areas requiring smaller amounts of
coating material. The system is configured for your specific application.

3.8.6 Laser Fan Width Control System
Laser Fan Width Control provides closed-loop control of the conformal coating process, automatically
compensating for variables within the process environment that can affect fluid fan width. Fan width
programming, accomplished through the ECXP software, can be retrofitted to existing Century Series
Dispensing Systems equipped with the SC-105 and SC-205 Film Coater Modules.
When a fan-width instruction is executed, the tool tip moves over a special cup equipped with a laser
sensor. The laser sensor measures the fan width while the coating fluid is dispensed into the cup. The
fluid pressure controls the fan width; the higher the pressure the greater the fan width. If the measured fan
width is greater than the set tolerance, the fluid pressure is decreased. If the measured fan width is less
than the set tolerance, the fluid pressure is increased.
" NOTE The fan width is measured in air, so the actual width of the coating fluid dispensed on a
production substrate will be wider. For manufacturers requiring statistical quality control
(SQC) of production parameters, the ECXP database utility automatically records process
variables, including fan width adjustment for post-process analysis. For more
information, see 6.13 Production Statistics.

WARNING! Looking directly at the laser beam may result in serious eye injury. Refer to
Section 2 - Safety for important safety information regarding Class II laser
safety precautions.

3.8.7 Flow Monitoring System
The Flow Monitoring System monitors the volume of material dispensed. The dispensing system can be
programmed to stop, pause, or continue when the dispensed volume falls outside the preset range. In
operation, the Computer controller, together with ECXP software, monitors the gear-type Flow Meter
when the coating sequence begins. ECXP software records the data in a log file and displays it on the
Monitor in bar graph format with time history.
Figure 3-4 Flow Meter
3.8.8 Hour Meter
The Hour Meter monitors the dispensing system operation hours for maintenance logging.
Figure 3-5 Hour Meter
3.8.9 Laser Pointer Programming Tool
The Laser Pointer Programming Tool projects a red dot onto the workpiece, which simulates the center
point of the dispensing module for faster identification of coating begin and end points. ECXP software
automatically compensates for the offset of the laser pointer-to-dispense-module centerline. The Laser
Pointer Programming Tool is factory configured at the time of system manufacture and reduces
programming time for faster production ramps.

3.8.10 Inline Inverter Module
The Inline Inverter Module provides for a “true” inline process by virtually eliminating manual handling
of the workpiece. Automatic one-or two-sided conformal coating reduces board-handling requirements
and increases yield. The Inline Inverter Module is SMEMA compatible and features a ventilated and
interlocked enclosure. The Inline Inverter Module can be configured for four modes of operation:
1. Bypass Mode – The Inverter passes the workpiece to the downstream system without
inverting it.
2. Normal Mode – The workpiece is inverted and passed to the downstream system.
3. Invert Once Mode –The workpiece is passed to the downstream Century C-740. After one
side of the workpiece is coated, it is sent back to the Inverter. The workpiece is inverted and
sent back to the C-740, where the other side is coated.
4. Invert Twice Mode – The workpiece is inverted and passed to the downstream Century
C-740. After one side of the workpiece is coated, it is sent back to the Inverter. The
workpiece is inverted and sent back to the C-740, where the other side is coated. The finished
workpiece is then passed to the next downstream system.
Figure 3-6 Inline Inverter Module

3.8.11 Light Curtain
The Light Curtain is an optional substitute for transparent front doors. To detect obstructions, the Light
Curtain uses an emitter and a receiver. The emitter has a vertical array of infrared lights that shine upon
the matching array of light sensors on the receiver. The emitter and receiver are mounted vertically on
each side of the dispensing area entrance (see Figure 3-7). When an object 19 mm (0.75 in) in diameter
or larger interrupts the invisible light beam between an emitter/receiver pair, the blockage triggers the
Safety Interlock System. The Interlock System then disables the dispensing machinery, but leaves the
Computer on.
If the dispensing system is not running a dispensing program, an intruding object will cause a recoverable
interlock condition. In this case, the yellow light in the DISPENSER STATUS section of the Control
Panel turns ON and the yellow light on the Light Beacon turns ON. To recover, simply remove the object.
The system will resume normal status.
If the dispensing system is actively running a dispensing program, an intruding object will cause a Non-
Recoverable Interlock Shutdown. The red ABORT LED on the Control Panel flashes, and the red light on
the Light Beacon and the red System Status LED turn ON. Refer to 2.10.3.1 Non-Recoverable Interlock
Shutdown for recovery instructions.

SC-205HS High Speed Non-Circulating Film Coater 0-360° + tilt
SC-300 Swirl Coat Applicator 4 position tilt
The Fluid Dispensing Applicators apply material as a controlled film, rather than an atomized spray. This
method has the following advantages:
• Virtual elimination of masking
• High transfer efficiency
• Improvement of material utilization by 30% to 50%
• Reduction of VOC emissions
The SC-100 Series Film Coaters are recirculating applicators. The SC-200 Series applicators are
noncirculating. Noncirculating fluid applicators are used to apply materials that do not require heating and
therefore, are not circulated.
3.9.1 Micro-Adjustment
All the Fluid Dispensing Applicators are equipped with a Micro-Adjustment for precise pattern and film-
thickness control. The piston and needle travel is adjusted by rotating the micro-adjust cap screw at the
top of the fluid applicator.
Rotating the cap screw clockwise decreases the piston and needle travel, which decreases the amount of
coating material that flows through the seat. Rotating the cap screw counterclockwise increases the piston
and needle travel, which increases coating material flow.
" NOTE This section provides a brief overview of the available Fluid Dispensing Applicators.
Refer to the manual for your particular fluid applicator for detailed operation and
installation instructions.

3.9.2 SC-104HS/SC-105HS High Speed Circulating Film Coater
The SC-104HS (4-axis) and SC-105HS (5-axis) apply coatings in a film rather than in an atomized spray
produced by conventional airless spray guns. The coaters are fitted with an air-actuated rotating ring
mechanism, which rotates the nozzle in 90-degree increments. In addition, the SC-105HS has an air-
activated tilt assembly, which allows the stroke to be adjusted from vertical to 30 degrees from vertical.

Film Coater Film Coater

3.9.3 SC-10XVCS Viscosity Control System
The Viscosity Control System maintains consistent temperature of conformal coating fluids. The system
includes a fluid dispensing applicator and a heated recirculating fluid circuit to eliminate viscosity
changes in temperature-responsive materials. Close-range temperature monitoring keeps the coating
process consistent and stable. By controlling the temperature of the conformal coating fluid circuit,
viscosity fluctuations can be reduced. Additionally, emissions of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs)
may be reduced, depending on the fluid properties.
Figure 3-12 Century Series C-740 with Viscosity Control System

3.9.4 SC-200 Slim Swirl Applicator
The Select Coat Slim Swirl Applicator (SC-200) uses Nordson slim swirl 12-hole nozzles to apply
materials that do not require heating and therefore do not require circulation. It is air-actuated and the
piston and ball travel is micro-adjustable for precise pattern and film-thickness control.
Figure 3-13 SC-200 Slim Swirl Applicator

3.9.4.1 Tri-Mode Swirl Box
The Tri-Mode Swirl Box is a component of the SC-200 Slim Swirl Applicator. It has two air assist and
two fluid regulators and gauges, which regulate the fluid and air-assist pressure to the Fluid Dispensing
Applicator. By varying the fluid pressure, conformal coating materials can be dispensed in a bead,
monofilament, or swirl pattern.
• Bead
- A non-atomized stream is applied to areas where:
Components are close to keep-out areas.
Extra material is required.
Tall components require support.
Material is needed on the edge or under a component.
• Monofilament
- Material is dispensed in a looping pattern.
- The circles flow together, creating a uniform film.
- Film builds can vary by changing fluid pressure and robot velocity.
- Multiple pattern widths can be obtained by varying air pressure.
• Swirl
- The Swirl Mode creates a conical, atomized pattern of material.
- It provides excellent control of pattern width (from 0.25 to 0.50 inches).
- It is ideal for achieving moderately selective coating and thin film builds (0.25 to 3 mils).
Figure 3-14 Tri-Mode Swirl Box

3.9.5 SC-204HS/SC-205HS High Speed Non-Circulating Film Coater
The SC-204HS (4-axis) and SC-205HS (5-axis) film coaters are used to apply materials that do not
require heating and therefore do not require circulation. The coaters are fitted with a rotating ring
mechanism, which rotates the nozzle in either a 0-degree or 90-degree position. In addition, the
SC-205HS has an air-activated tilt assembly, which allows the stroke to be adjusted from vertical to
30 degrees from vertical.
Figure 3-15 SC-204HS Non-Circulating Film Coater Figure 3-16 SC-205 Non-Circulating Film Coater

3.9.6 SC-300 Swirl Coat Applicator
The SC-300 Series Swirl Coat Applicator is a non-contact coating applicator providing high-speed
delivery and exceptional volumetric control for various fluids, especially “100%-solids” formulations.
The SC-300 coats in tight spaces and has unequalled versatility for spray pattern flexibility under program
control. The tri-mode operation refers to the combination of fluid and air-assist control. With the air-assist
off, the SC-300 dispenses fluid in spots or beads. With the air-assist on, it delivers coating stripes as a
swirling monofilament or an atomized spray. It is fully compatible with Asymtek Century C-740 and
earlier generation systems employing the SC-200 Swirl Coat applicator.

6 Operation
6.1 Overview
Before operating your Century C-740/C-741 Dispensing System, it may be helpful to familiarize yourself
with the basics of how the system works. This section covers the following topics:
• Basic System Operation • Dispensing System Controls

• Conformal Coating • Pneumatic Regulators and Gauges
• Detailed Operation • System Startup/Shutdown
• Computer System • Conformal Coating Setup Procedures
• ECXP Software • Loading a Program
• Dispensing Operations • Running a Program
• Conveyor Operations • Production Statistics
" NOTE In this section, typical Century C-740/C-741 configurations are considered. However,
operational details may vary with the configuration of your system.
6.2 Basic System Operation

The C-740/C-741 Series Dispensing Systems provide consistent, uniform dispensing of solvent-based and
100-percent solids materials for both inline (C-740) and batch (C-741) coating applications. Easy Coat for
Windows XP (ECXP) software controls both the robot movements and the dispensing operation.
The C-740 has a chain conveyor, which carries the workpiece from an upstream machine, to a dispensing
station where fluid is dispensed, and then delivers the processed workpiece to a downstream machine.
Instead of the conveyor, the C-741 batch dispensing system includes an aluminum tooling plate or
adjustable tooling rails. The tooling plate is easily removed for modification. Workpiece fixturing is
customer-supplied. The adjustable tooling rail option is ready to accept boards with a 3mm or greater
edge clearance.
6.3 Conformal Coating

The Century C-740/C-741 Series Dispensing System is designed to apply conformal coating materials
with a high level of flexibility and consistency. Conformal coating is a material that is applied to a circuit
board to provide protection from chemical and mechanical damage.
Applying conformal coating is a two-step process. Dispensing the conformal coating is the first step.
After the conformal coating has been applied, it must be cured. The curing method depends on the coating
material. Most materials are cured by one of the following processes:
• Heat (infrared), using an infrared or convection oven
• UV (ultraviolet) light, using a UV oven
• Moisture (humidity), using ambient conditions or a humidity controlled environment
Operation 6-1
6.4 Detailed Operation (C-740)
During operational setup of the C-740 inline system, the part enters the system using SMEMA (Surface
Mount Equipment Manufacturers Association) handshakes. It moves to the dispensing area where the
conformal coating is applied and then exits the system. Conformal coating application programs are
created using the Easy Coat for Windows XP (ECXP) software installed on the system.
6.4.1 Dispensing Process
A typical C-740 (conveyorized) conformal coating process is described below. See Figure 6-1 for
additional details. Setup and programming procedures are not included in the description.
1. A part enters the system from an upstream system.
A SMEMA handshake with upstream machine signals dispensing system is ready for a workpiece.
The (standard) chain conveyor carries the board by the edges into the dispensing area. A stop pin
engages to stop the board.
2. The part stops in the Dispensing Area.
A photoelectric sensor detects the presence of the board. The conveyor indexes the part according to
SMEMA standards. Pneumatically actuated board pins lower into holes in the board to secure it
precisely in place for accurate fluid dispensing.
3. Fluid is dispensed.
The conformal coating fluid is applied to the board, according to a preprogrammed dispensing
pattern. Refer to the Easy Coat for Windows User Guide for detailed information.
4. The part moves to a downstream system.
When dispensing is complete, the stop pin disengages, a SMEMA handshake occurs, and the part
moves to the downstream system. Another part is loaded and carried into the dispensing area.
6-2 Operation
Production Run Started
Operator enters ECXP Command
“Start Production.”
Part Enters the System

1. If system dispense part sensor is clear, then system sends SMEMA signal
to upstream machine – “Request for Board.”
2. Stop Pin lowers.
3. When upstream machine is ready, it sends SMEMA signal to dispensing
system – “Board Ready to Send.”
4. While both SMEMA signals are high, the Conveyor indexes part toward
dispensing area.
5. Part Sensor detects part.
6. Conveyor stops.
7. Board is pinned in place
8. Dispensing system sends SMEMA signal to upstream machine – “Board
Received.”
9. Conveyor sends internal handshake signal to Dispenser – “Board at
Dispense.”
Fluid is Dispensed Onto Board

Dispensing Head moves to the locations
assigned in the current ECXP program, in
relation to the machine origin, or “Home.”
Part Exits the System

1. Downstream machine sends “Ready to Receive” SMEMA request to
dispensing system.
2. When dispensing is finished, Dispenser sends an internal handshake
signal to Conveyor – “Dispense Done.”
3. When Conveyor receives “Dispense Done” signal, dispensing system
sends “Ready to Send” SMEMA signal to downstream machine.
4. Stop Pin and Board Pins rise.
5. Conveyor indexes until downstream machine acknowledges that part has
been received.
6. Stop Pin lowers while waiting for next part.

6.5 Computer System
The computer is located inside the lower cabinet. The CD-ROM drive, disk drive, power switch and reset
buttons are located on the front of the computer. Access to connections at the rear of the computer should
be limited to service technicians.
Conformal coating dispensing programs are created using the ECXP software installed in your system.
Dispensing programs are stored on the computer hard drive.
6.5.1 ECXP Software
Easy Coat for Windows XP (ECXP) is Asymtek's proprietary dispensing software for use in a Windows
XP environment. ECXP software is an interface between the user and the Robot Controller/Fluid
Applicator. Before the dispensing process can begin, the ECXP software must be installed and
programmed to perform the necessary procedures.
The software allows the user to develop program files (.ECW file extension), which direct the motion of
the Robot Controller/Fluid Applicator to coat a workpiece. The program files contain all the robot moves
and I/O operations necessary to coat the workpiece. Basically, the dispensing program instructs the
system when, where, and how much fluid to dispense. Refer to 6.10 Conformal Coating Setup Procedures
6.11 Loading a Program, and 6.12 Running a Program for detailed instructions on how to load and run a
dispensing program.
" NOTE A workpiece is defined as a board or substrate (PCB, PWB, etc.) or a carrier (pallet, auer
boat, lead frame, etc.) to be dispensed upon.

6.6 Dispensing Operations

All dispensing operations take place in a workcell. The workcell contains a robot and a fluid dispensing
applicator mounted on the robot tool arm.
6.6.1 Robot Concepts
6.6.1.1 Home
The home position of the robot is a known position within the workspace defined by X, Y, and Z
coordinates. It is generally located at the front left of the workcell.
6.6.1.2 Tool
A tool consists of a fluid dispensing applicator and nozzle.
6.6.1.3 Tool Offset

The tool offset is the X, Y, and Z distance from the robot's lower tooling pin to the tool tip (the end of the
nozzle). Robot position is calculated using the coordinates of the tooling pin plus the offset. Refer to
7.10 Robot Configuration to establish Tool Offsets.
6.6.1.4 Robot Motion

Robot moves are specified as coordinates on the X, Y or Z-axes. If a move combines motion in all three
axes, and the Robot Controller cannot move the robot in the Z-axis at the same time as the X and Y-axes,
then the move is performed (depending on the Safe Z Height setting) as follows:
• If the destination is higher than the starting point, the Z motion is performed first.
• If the destination is lower than the starting point, the Z motion is performed last.
6.6.1.5 Fixture
Fixture is defined as the location at which products are physically constrained in the workcell. It consists
of both a position (X, Y, Z) and a corner constraint. Refer to 7.7 Fixture Configuration.
6.6.1.6 Safe Z Height

This is the height below which the tool tip cannot go when moving from one set of coordinates to another
during operation. It prevents the tool tip from colliding with a board component, a fixture, or the
conveyor. The Safe Z Height is set in the ECXP program. Refer to 7.10 Robot Configuration to set the
Safe Z Height.
6-6 Operation
6.6.2 Coordinate Systems
All positioning in the workcell is done with reference to sets of position coordinates, called Reference
Frames. As you face the front of the workcell, the X-axis is left to right, the Y-axis is front to rear, and the
Z-axis is up and down. Three different sets of Reference Frames are used: Robot Reference Frame,
Product Reference Frame and Pattern Reference Frame.

6.6.2.1 Robot Reference Frame

The Robot Reference Frame (Figure 6-3, Rectangle A) is the set of coordinates (X, Y, and Z) that define
the robot's workspace. The origin (Home) of the Robot Reference Frame is a known point in the
workspace, defined by a set of limit switches.
6.6.2.2 Product Reference Frame

Product Reference Frames (Figure 6-3, Rectangle B) exist within the Robot Reference Frame. ECXP uses
fixture constraint coordinates, plus the length and width of the product, to calculate the coordinates of the
product reference frame. The product reference frame origin is the Main Pattern Edit Frame.
" NOTE A product can be a board or a carrier containing one or more boards. If a carrier is
used, the dimensions of the carrier are used to calculate the product reference frame.
6.6.2.3 Pattern Reference Frame

Other than the Main Pattern Edit Frame, the origin coordinates of patterns (Figure 6-3, Rectangle C) are
expressed as a set of coordinates in the Product Reference Frame. The pattern origin coordinates are
stored in the Pattern Reference Frame when the pattern is created.
6.6.2.4 Pattern Execution

The Main Pattern runs when the program is executed and contains the dispensing instructions. The Main
Pattern is placed at the Product Reference Frame origin, which is the front left corner of the workpiece.
Operation 6-7
6.7 Conveyor Operations
6.7.1 Chain Conveyor (C-740)
The chain conveyor, standard on the Century Series C-740 Dispensing System, transports the workpiece
into and out of the dispensing system. Operation of the conveyor is automatic during production runs. An
optical sensor detects the part as it arrives, triggering the Conveyor Controller Module to activate the Stop
Pin to stop the part at the correct location. Board pins in the dispense zone secure the part in place during
fluid dispensing.
" NOTE The C-741 batch system has a tooling plate or adjustable tooling rails to secure the
workpiece for dispensing operations.
6.7.1.1 Conveyor Adjustments
The conveyor should not need adjustment during normal operation. However, during programming, or
when replacing conveyor parts or changing the type/size of the workpiece, you may need to move the
conveyor chain left or right, or adjust the distance between the conveyor rails.
To move the conveyor chain left or right:
1. Press CONVYR ENABLE on the Control Panel.

! The conveyor LED blinks when the conveyor control is active.
2. Press the left or right arrow on the Control Panel to move the conveyor chain left or right,
respectively.
To manually adjust the distance between conveyor rails:

6.10.1 Performing a Characterization
Many factors must be taken into consideration when programming the dispensing system for board
coating. Such factors as material type, temperature, and thickness, as well as the type of surface to be
coated, must be well thought-out when developing a conformal coating program. Characterization refers
to selecting the appropriate response times to compensate for these variables.
Characterizations must be performed each time a new material is used or as required to ensure quality and
consistent dispensing. Refer to 7.5 Characterization for detailed instructions on performing a
characterization.
6.10.2 Developing a Coating Program

The coating program is developed with the ECXP software and the computer in conjunction with the
dispensing system. The following is a typical series of steps required to develop a coating program.
1. Define board coating requirements, such as areas to be coated, areas not to be coated (keep-
out areas), and areas in which coating is optional.
2. Develop coating move sequences based on the board coating requirements.

! Refer to the ECXP User Guide or Online Help for more information.
3. Test coat a board with material.
4. Update the program and recoat the board until it is acceptable.

3. Enter the appropriate Tool Offsets for the X, Y, and Z fields.

! Since the tool tip is in front of and below the tooling pin, the Y and Z offsets are always
negative. Positive X is to the right of the tooling pin, as shown in Figure 7-1.
WARNING! If Tool Offsets have already been defined and set up in the Tool Library,
correct offsets are displayed in the Tool Configuration dialog box. DO NOT
change them without assistance from your Asymtek representative. Your
Asymtek application engineer can supply you with the offset coordinates for
each tool used.

7.5 Characterization
" NOTE A characterization must be performed for each tool and each coating material used or as
required to ensure quality and consistent dispensing.
Many variables, such as material type, temperature, viscosity, substrate type, robot velocities, and
dispenser response times affect the coating process. Characterization improves coating placement
accuracy and repeatability. The Characterization Wizard helps you adjust program values to compensate
for these variables. The characterization process consists of defining the following values:
• On/Off Response Times
• Dispense Height
• Dispense Speed (Velocity)
• Dispense Width
" NOTE All of these variables are interrelated. Make your selections based on the results you want
to achieve. Refer to ECXP online help or contact your Asymtek representative for
The characterization automatically calculates dispensing ON and OFF times. Characterization

compensates for such variables as:
• Change in air pressure
• Fluid viscosity
• Fluid Dispensing Applicator velocity
When you perform a characterization, the Fluid Dispensing Applicator will dispense three stripes of
material. You will then be prompted to select the best pass (generally the third line). The values will be
stored in the Robot Controller. The Fluid Dispensing Applicator will then dispense three additional stripes
of material. These lines should correspond to the best pass previously selected. This is your
characterization.
To perform a characterization:

7.6 Fan Width Configuration

If your system is equipped with the optional Laser Fan Width Control feature, you will need to perform a
Fan Width Setup. For additional information, refer to the manual for your Laser Fan Width Control
System or contact your Asymtek representative.
7.6.1 Fan Width Setup
Before configuring the fluid fan width, you must perform a tool configuration and characterization. Refer
to 7.4 Tool Configuration and 7.5 Characterization for detailed instructions.
" NOTE Fan Width Control is available only for the Select Coat Tool. For more information,
contact your Asymtek representative.

7.7 Fixture Configuration
Fixture refers to the location at which products are physically constrained in the workcell. It consists of
both position (XYZ) coordinates and a corner constraint (Front Left, Front Right, Back Left, or Back
Right). On conveyorized systems, the fixture is typically the combination of a clamp and a stop. On non-
conveyorized systems, it is usually a manual fixture.
7.7.1 Fixture Constraint Location

ECXP uses the fixture constraint coordinates and the length and width of the board or carrier to determine
the Main Pattern Edit Frame coordinates. The Fixture Constraint Location is the corner of the product that
is always in the same location when the product is in the fixture (the repeatable corner). ECXP calculates
the position of the front-left corner of the product from the repeatable corner, using the product's length
and width.
Conveyorized systems will always use a front corner as the constraint location, because the fixed rail is
located at the front of the workcell. For example, if the conveyor movement is from left to right, and the
fixed rail is the front rail, then the constraint location is Front Right. If the conveyor movement is right to
left, then the constraint location is Front Left.

D.4 Auxiliary I/O Connector Pinouts
Pin 1 on the connector has a shorter retention tab. Pin 1 of the associated PC mounted mating connector is
to the right, when facing the back of the dispensing system. Use Asymtek connectors P/N 55-5185 (2
pin), 55-5906 (3 pin), and 55-5908 (4 pin).
Input activation requires 5 mA to be sunk to RETURN. Output transistors are 6 mA capable. Refer to
Table 8-2 for bit mapping information.
INTLK – [1] +24 Vdc switched, [2] Anode, [3] Cathode, [4] Return (connect cathode to return to activate
machine interlock).
IN 1 – [1] CATC0, [2] RETURN, [3] +24 V_SWITCHED
OUT 1 – [1] COLC6, [2] EMC6
OUT 2 – [1] COLC7, [2] EMC7
The expanded I/O has three 26-position D-sub I/O connectors, accessible in the top right inside corner of
the dispensing system. Port A, located closest to the back of the dispensing system is used in this
example. Substitute “B” or “C” for the other I/O ports.
‘CATA0’ (‘CAT’ ‘A’ ‘0’-CAT=> cathode, A=> port A, 0=> bit zero) is the cathode of the diode in an
opto-coupled diode and transistor. The transistor activates an input on the system data bus, in this case bit
0 on port A.
For the diode to properly turn on the transistor, 2 mA of current must be drawn through it by making a
connection to the IG (isolated ground) pin.
Current is limited by a resistor in series with the diode, pulled up to isolated 5 Vdc.
‘COLA1’ and ‘EMA1’ are the open collector and emitter connections to a transistor which is activated by
an opto-coupled diode, which in this case is turned on with output bit 1 in port A.
Each output has a 6 mA drive capability.
STOP-K is the cathode of an opto-coupled input diode, activation of which will place the machine into a
stopped state.
Ports A, B and C have the same connection scheme and capabilities.
" NOTE On the 60-0255-00 PCA, pin 9 on port B is connected to a STOP-K input.
