Universal Offers NPI Free with New Genesis Configuration
26 June 2006
Universal Instruments announce it will include NPI software installed and activated free of charge with all future orders for its Genesis high-speed chip placement platforms.
“Universal is determined to continuously improve value and satisfaction for customers, and existing NPI users tell us this software greatly enhances productivity,” said Director of Genesis Platform, Scott Gerhart. “With NPI software now freely available with Genesis, which also includes embedded features that maximize the capabilities of NPI, Universal customers will enjoy distinct advantage over their competitors.”
Further features of the NPI utility include post-placement inspection assistance to facilitate fine-tuning and troubleshooting. In a high product mix environment, NPI’s ability to rapidly verify feeder and fiducial settings can deliver savings. By supporting pre-placement inspection NPI will help to drive up productivity and utilization, and reduce operator training. It also verifies that all parts are placed, and are correctly located and oriented after the board has been built.
