The DEK Horizon 03 is a screen printing machine that was manufactured
by DEK, a company known for producing advanced printing solutions for
electronics, solar, and industrial markets. The Horizon 03 model was
released in 2004 and was designed for high-speed, high-accuracy
printing on small to medium-sized electronic components.
The machine features a programmable vision system that enables precise
alignment of the stencil to the substrate, ensuring that the printing
is accurate and consistent. The vision system uses a high-resolution
camera to detect fiducial marks on the substrate and adjust the
position of the stencil accordingly.
The DEK Horizon 03 is also equipped with a motorized squeegee that can
be programmed to apply consistent pressure and speed during the
printing process. This ensures that the ink is applied evenly and at
the correct thickness, improving the quality of the printed circuit
board.
