BotFactory SV2 PCB Printer - Print and assemble large, high-density Printed Circuit Boards faster than any third-party vendor and for less
The SV2 is our second-generation Desktop PCB Printer, capable of printing multilayer circuits, dispensing paste onto pads, and pick-and-placing components onto the board.
We have taken all of the processes found in any PCB Factory and miniaturized them to fit within a package so small that it can fit between your computer and your oscilloscope. Simply export your Gerber files from any PCB Design tool and import them in SV2 - print circuit boards in minutes!
Printing - Inkjet Conductive & Insulating Inks
SV2 can inkjet print low-resistivity conductive inks and dielectric insulating inks to make Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs) in minutes on a variety of stiff and flexible substrates.
SV2 sequentially prints conductive traces and insulating layers, building vias in the dielectric layer to interconnect layers.
Dispensing - Extrude conductive glues or solder pastes
Lay down conductive glue or solder paste on printed or pre-fab boards in minutes using the Paste head.
SV2 takes eyesight and shaky hands out of the equation by precisely depositing on every pad.
Assembly - Pick and Place, efficiently and accurately
Printed Circuit Board Assembly (PCBA) can consume up to 80% of the entire cost of manufacturing an assembled PCB. In addition, a long back-and-forth can be required with the fab house to make sure they can source and place the parts.
SV2 can pick-and-place components to rapidly assemble your board, using multiple vacuum tips that are automatically interchanged. SV2 also uses a camera and computer vision to make adjustments and place the parts precisely.
