ECP-4000 / ECP-8000
Enhanced Capability Punch — Flagship Precision Series
±0.0003" Repeatability | 4 / 8 Cameras | Win 11 Platform | In-Line Inspection | MES SECS-GEM |
| The ECP-8000 is our flagship product — functioning as both a precision post-etch punch and an in-line inspection machine that checks squareness and coaxial error between top and bottom panel sides. Customers report dramatically improved yield rates. IDEAL FOR: HDI fabricators, mil-spec/aerospace shops, thin material specialists (flex/rigid-flex), and any operation where precision registration and quality verification are paramount. |
KEY FEATURES
In-Line Inspection (ECP-8000) — Checks squareness and coaxial error between top and bottom panel sides during production — customers report dramatically improved yield rates
Bronze Bushing System — ECP-exclusive four-post die set with bronze bushing and pin system ensures mechanical repeatability unmatched by competitors
Ultra-Thin Material Handling — Standard: down to 0.002" (2 mil). ECP-RF configuration handles materials to 0.001" (1 mil) at 4–5 panels/min
Easy Maintenance — Quick removal and replacement of punch/die modules for sharpening — designed for minimal production downtime
Enhanced Precision Available — ECP-8000 can achieve ±0.00015" repeatability for pin lamination applications
