Once a board is read by the P.O.D.,
the data can then be analyzed in our P.O.D.
software. This
allows our engineers to analyze your machine to determine
where any variance is occurring and
correct the issue. The figure below shows data from a
CP6 machine; it was determined that
three shafts are out of specification. As you can see
from fig. 1d, head “P” is out of specification
in the X-direction and fig. 1c shows heads “D”
and “E” are out in the Y-direction. Once this
is
known, the engineer can then determine if the problem
is a mechanical or offset problem. In
this case, mechanical variance was within specification
and offset was determined to be the
problem. Offsets were then generated and uploaded to the
machine by the P.O.D.
and a final
board was run with results shown in fig. 1b.
