G-4 Glossary
SEMI: Semiconductor Equipment and Materials
International. An organization that defines
protocols for the semiconductor industry.
Service Shutdown: When all dispensing is
stopped and the dispensing system is made safe
so that servicing can be performed.
Service Technician: Trained personnel
responsible for performing advanced system
servicing procedures.
SMEMA: Surface Mount Equipment
Manufacturers Association. Established protocol
for signal communication between two or more
different systems.
Stepping: The Step feature allows you to step
through a program, one instruction at a time.
Each click on the Step button performs one
instruction.
SVGA: Super Video Graphics Array. A video
card that produces high-quality color images at
high resolution.
Swirl Mode: Conformal coating applied in a
conical, swirling pattern. Available with either
the SC-200 or the SC-300 Applicator and Tri-
Mode Swirl Box.
System Status LEDs: Located on the Control
Panel, the LED’s are color coded for each
System Status condition. The colors correspond
with the colored lights on the Light Beacon.
Teach Camera: The teach camera teaches
coordinates for existing instructions.
Tool: A tool consists of a dispenser and nozzle,
with an offset from the lower tooling pin of the
robot to the tip of the nozzle, and a list of I/O
behaviors.
Tool Offset: The tool offset is the X, Y, and Z
distance from the Robot's lower tooling pin to
the tool tip (the end of the nozzle). Robot
position is calculated using the coordinates of
the tooling pin plus the offset.
Tooling Plate (C-741): The Tooling Plate
secures the workpiece for batch system
operations.
Tri-Mode Swirl Box: A component of the SC-
200 Slim Swirl Applicator, the Tri-Mode Swirl
Box regulates the air pressure to the fluid
applicator. By varying the fluid pressure,
conformal coating materials can be dispensed in
a bead, monofilament, or swirl pattern.
UV-Cure: Curing method that uses ultra-violet
light to cure (harden) coating materials.
VOC: Volatile Organic Compounds. (VOC's)
are organic chemicals that have a high vapor
pressure and easily form vapors at normal
temperature and pressure. VOC content
expresses the amount of volatile material in a
sample, either in pounds per gallon, grams per
liter, or as a percentage by mass.
Workcell: Dispensing area.
Workpiece: The board or substrate (PCB, PWA,
etc.) or a carrier (pallet, auer boat, lead frame,
etc.) to be dispensed upon.
X-Axis: Left to right movement of the Robot in
the dispensing area (Workcell).
X-Beam: The apparatus that spans the width of
the dispensing chamber. The Robot is mounted
to the X-Beam and slides along it in the X-Axis.
Includes mechanical pulleys for the X-Axis
cables.
Y-Axis: Forward and backward movement of
the Dispensing Head in the dispensing area
(Workcell).
Y-Beam: The apparatus that spans the length of
the dispensing chamber. The Robot is mounted
to the Y-Beam and slides along it in the Y-Axis.
Includes mechanical pulleys for the Y-Axis
cables
Z-Axis: Up and down movement of the
Dispensing Head in the dispensing area
(Workcell).
