The Rohm & Haas Vacuum Applicator VA 7024-HP5 is a semiautomatic machine, designed and built to ensure complete elimination of air from the surfaces of a printed circuit board, as well as perfect encapsulation of the traces. The machine has been developed for simultaneous application on both sides of the PCBs (flexible and rigid) in order to achive high lamination quality and excellent conformation to fine patterns with dry film photoresist, dry film soldermask and ConforMASK™, dielectric film, copper foil for SBU technology and coverlayer application. The machineensures a perfect adhesion of the dry film and that there are no air bubbles. VA 7024-HP5 employs heat, vacuum and high lamination pressure.
