This line of quick-mount LCD connector assemblies is installation-ready and includes an acrylic display bezel and mask, as well as an environmentally protective and shock-absorbent retainer that holds two conductive Zebra connectors. Reportedly provides a method for mounting LCDs to PC boards without the need for pins or soldering. Six size options are available to accommodate LCDs from 0.54" x 0.94" up to 1.50" x 2.75". Connectors consist of alternating parallel layers of conductive and nonconductive silicone rubber repeating on a 0.18 mm pitch; offer a nominal resistance of 1000Ω, operating temperature from -40° to 95°C, with a relative humidity range from zero to 100%.
The 781RC MicroMark Recirculating Spray System reportedly eliminates maintenance and downtime encountered with felt pads that become contaminated with debris – or spray valves that clog with heavy pigments – by using a recirculating pump to keep pigments in suspension, and using a short burst of air after each cycle to clear the nozzle of residue. Marking inks and paints are said to perform exactly as intended. Is reliable and easy to service.
ACE Releases High-speed Inline Work Cell The ACE automated, high-speed in-line work cell runs higher volumes of products requiring secondary selective soldering. Designed for flexibility for high-mix environments, the configurable line reportedly offers a higher degree of productivity expected from an automated flowline. Consists of a loading station (assembly area); a Kiss 104F automated selective fluxing station (spray flux, drop-jet or dual); a KPHIL-2 inline top and bottom-side pre-heating station, and a Kiss-104 inline selective soldering station. Kiss 104 also features Automated Optical Alignment system, including a high-quality camera and machine vision system to align each assembly to be soldered using preprogrammed fiducial points on the board.
