FlexLink offers several standardized pallet platforms and modules for the physical material flow in electronic production processes. Intelligent, single-piece flow applications are easily created by combining pallet systems with FlexLink’s line control and Youtilize® MES software , and meets the industry’s demands for high quality, traceability and accessibility. The result is a controllable process, characterized by standardised continuous flow, minimized work in progress (WIP) and a high throughput that lets you focus on value adding time.
In addition, there are automatic high throughput handling modules for PCB production with a full range of handling and routing alternatives. The acquired e-cube's products have now been integrated into the FlexLink PCB offer and provides the market a smorgasbord of PCB modules that are plug-and-play, cost effective and easy to integrate. All modules have electrostatic protected (ESD safe) designs and are CE marked. Key features of the software platform include modules for order handling, traceability, flow, operator instructions, quality control and test handling.
The three ranges, e³ SMART, e³ GENIUS and PRO, permit FlexLink to offer turnkey PCB handling solutions to the entire EMS market, including laser marking and soldering lines, regardless the customer’s production levels or being semi-automatic or automatic assembly.
The modules are equipped with SMEMA interfaces and designed for easy installation and fast ramp-up, enhancing production efficiency and a low life cycle cost thanks to products with high flexibility and quality.
FlexLink works closely together with customers and business partners to deliver solutions based on customer-driven production, which helps to reduce work in progress and shorten time-to-market while increasing output. Three business units in Italy, Malaysia and the US specialize in the engineering and provision of conveying and handling systems for the EMS industry.
