SMT Line Traceability
Mark and verify every PCB at the start of the line.
The challenge
A unique code on each bare board lets every process step — printing, placement, reflow, test — be recorded against it. Marking is built into the line, before the screen printer.
What you gain
- Board-level process history
- Label-free, reflow-proof identification
- No added operators
How it comes together
Board handling
Magazine loaders and edge conveyors feed boards automatically.
Laser marking
UV, fiber or CO2 lasers write a DataMatrix on the resist.
Verification
A camera grades the code and uploads the serial to MES.
Line communication
SMEMA and network links coordinate neighbouring machines.
Machine families involved
Conveyors & Line Automation
Modular conveyors, accumulation tables, PCB handling and cobot cells that link machines into a line.
UV Laser Marking Machines
355 nm “cold” marking for plastics, films, glass and heat-sensitive components.
Fiber Laser Marking Machines
High-contrast permanent marks on metals and engineering plastics, on the fly or at a workstation.
Vision & Code Inspection Systems
Cameras that read, verify and grade every code and label — and reject what fails.
