Fastwel manufacturing facility in Moscow is a modern enterprise tooled up with the most advanced equipment from ASSEMBLEON, the world leader in assembly lines production; an autonomous purified compressed air supply system based on Atlas Copco compressors; production facilities climate control system from CLIMA; high purity nitrogen supply system for HOTFLOW 7 and N-WAVE 400 ovens.

FINEPLACER rework center allows building of production prototypes and small lots of products.

Our process lines allow:

• Mounting from small lots up to several thousand cards per shift;
• Mounting components practically of any shape from THT to SMD with pitch of 0.3mm including BGA, micro BGA and Flip Chip;
• Reflow Convection soldering in controlled nitrogen atmosphere (SMT);
• Double-wave soldering in nitrogen atmosphere;
• Fully automated assembling.

As a part of our process line, we use an X-ray soldering quality inspection system from PHOENIX-XRAY. We perform functional testing of finished products. The test bed and the testing schedule may be provided by customer or developed by our specialists.

A FINEPLACER convection system allows precise mounting and dismounting of electronic components and PCB repair. We perform operations on printed boards with multipin components (pitch less than 0.5 mm), BGA and Flip Chip packages.

Since June 2005 Fastwel introduced a new highly automated SMT line, which, together with the existing lines, allows to set automatically all types of components at the optimum speed and with required accuracy. The features of the new line are set in order to increase the technological and economic efficiency of standard products manufacturing. Now, optimum distribution of orders makes it possible to produce the whole range of electronic products: from common modules with 10 to 30 mounted components manufactured in large quantities, up to sophisticated Compact PCI processor modules, Pentium M / 2 GHz, designed by Fastwel at the beginning of 2005.

The line is equipped with modern technological devices from the leading world manufacturers, and oriented to products’ quality improvement. The automatic control system, designed to test the quality of assembled electronic modules, is equipped with automatic inspection and repair station with a laser indicator, which made it possible to achieve 99,99% of quality product yield. This figure is quite high not only for Russian but for other European SMT-related companies manufacturing a wide range of products.

Reflow Convection soldering system is assigned for lead-free technology, which allows Fastwel to keep the leadership among contract and standard products manufacturers in Russia and correspond to world environmental requirements. An additional workplace for program processing has made manufacturing uninterruptible thus providing the opportunity to extend the range of Fastwel products.

At the assembly rate of 40 000 components per hour, within the two-shift working schedule, Fastwel can produce from 500 to 5 000 (depending on complexity) electronic modules per day, therefore up to 100 000 units per month, which allows to meet our customers’ growing needs.

Having dramatically evolved, Fastwel provides the market with unique technologies possessed only by few world electronics manufacturers.
