Networking The Horizon can be networked using standard network interfaces to connect to
dedicated or corporate networks. Utilizing the network, products and data can
be exchanged between the Horizon and other equipment.
DEK Network Files option allows the machine control software to access remote
product and data directories on a server. Once product files are present on the
server, they can be shared by all printers and PCs on the network.
Generic Equipment Model
The Generic Equipment Model (GEM) is an industry standard communications
model that has been defined by the SEMI organization. Its objective is to create
a standard in the field of Factory Automation.
GEM is an option on the Horizon and allows a GEM compliant host system to
communicate with the printer in order to facilitate one or more of the following:
• Data collection
• Remote control and process program management
• Automated material movement
• Fully automated production - ‘Lights Out’
The GEM option is installed on the Horizon using TCP/IP network interface for
communications with the host.
Using the GEM interface, a compliant host system is able to remotely monitor
machine downtime, monitor machine throughput and other equipment data,
upload and download product files (process programs), monitor machine events
and send remote commands such as Start Print and End Batch.
Special Board Handling Options
Selective Print Pass
This option enables the Horizon to decide whether to print a loaded board or pass
it through unprinted. A board is printed if the board fiducial called the ‘Print
Select Mark’ is successfully located.
When a board is loaded, fiducial acquisition is carried out. If the fiducial ‘Print
Select Mark’ is successfully acquired and located the board is printed normally.
If location is unsuccessful the board is passed down line through the Horizon
without being printed.
Flexible Board Printing
This option enables the Horizon to print flexible boards that may not be flat when
loaded to the machine. The board is loaded and brought up to print height to
flatten against the screen. Vacuum is applied to the tooling holding the board flat
the table is lowered to vision height whilst alignment is being carried out. The
board is raised to print height and vacuum is removed for the duration of the
print stroke. Once complete, vacuum is reapplied and the board is transported
down line.
