RE: [Homebrew_PCBs] DLP - getting better!

Visit, please, www.bungard.de where you can find the Bungard  Laser Direct:


'Bungard Laser Direct, UV laser direct imaging system for common photoresists.
We already presented and operated a prototype during Productronica 
fair 2011 in Munich. In this demonstration we exposed a Euro card 
with positive resist, ALUCOREX as well as negative resist within 3 minutes.

Target Customers are electronic developers with frequent layout 
changes, who want to process their PCB prototypes (e.g. antenna 
structures), in wet processing technology according to industrial standards.

The laser head has a resolution better than 50 microns and will be 
available either as an add on item for existing CCD machines as well 
as a complete CNC system that can not only expose but also drill and route.
The Bungard Laser Direct will be able to expose a Eurocard pcb in 
about 15 minutes, depending on the interconnect density and aspect 
ratio. To control the laser unit the software LaserPro is required. 
In LaserPro travel speed, travel height, light energy and start delay 
(Prelight) can be set for currently 1 - 15 tools.
LaserPro processes HPGL data (HPGL 7475A) in the same manner as the 
other operating software for the Bungard CCD RoutePro and DispPro. If 
necessary, the CAD-CAM software ISOCAM is required to convert Gerber 
Data into HPGL travel paths.

After exposure, the boards can be developed and etched like our 
normal presensitized base material. The Bungard Laser Direct does not 
remove copper from the substrate. When lasering copper highly toxic 
gases are produced, that need special collecting neutralizing and 
disposal measures. In our opinion, etching is the far more 
environmentally friendly option.

With the Bungard Laser Direct prototypes can be realized more quickly 
and accurately than with previous technology. For small series 
production, we still recommend to make a layout film with the Bungard 
Filmstar and expose with the Hellas or - for finer resolution - with 
the EXP 8000

The Bungard Laser Direct and the software LaserPro are offered at an 
unbeatable price. They can be retrofitted to all Bungard CCD machines 
younger than in 2006. Ask us for a quote!'

I'll buy one if it is not a fortune.
