Speedprint Technology Ltd., a division of Blakell Europlacer Group, is offering Novatec’s VacuNest Shape Memory Tool on its printer platforms through an OEM supply agreement.
The shape memory tool combines the benefits of a custom tooling plate with the versatility of pins. An antistatic membrane covers a foam former surrounded by polymer granules. Simply place a golden board onto the modules, press down, pull a vacuum and the memory of the board shape profile is held. The chambers are profiled to the shape of the underside of the board ¾ on activation of the vacuum this shape is now held. The shape will be held until the vacuum is released, and the modules return to their original form awaiting the next version of board.
Will not damage a component due to the pin/printing pressure, support forces are evenly spread over the entire board, provides firm and precise support and can be simply reset when a board version changes.
Said to guarantee board flatness; is not sensitive to solder paste contamination.

Eliminates the cost of a custom tooling plate as well as pin tooling. Can handle high-density boards with ease and requires little to no lead-time.

Wickgun Desoldering Braid Dispenser is a hand-held tool that allows users to dispense, position and cut-off braid using one hand while holding a soldering iron in the other. Features a braid with no clean flux (for use with Pb-free solder), is said to eliminate handling braid, reduces waste and speeds desoldering.
Available in four braid sizes from 0.035” to 0.110” W, the replaceable cassettes are preloaded with 15 ft. of braid and are easy to change. Braid is advanced and retracted using a thumbwheel can be cut-off by squeezing the trigger.

A hand-held X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF) NITON analyzer is equipped with a helium purging mechanism for direct analysis of “light elements.” The analyzers provide immediate chemical analysis of alloys, electronic materials, coatings, plastics and more.
NITON XLt 898He system has the added ability to quantitatively analyze the elements Mg, Al, Si, and P in most alloy materials. Now, field sorters and inspectors are capable of light element sorting and light alloy chemistries, both non-destructively and on-site.
Thousands of added alloy grades can now be determined with the single hand-held, non-destructive alloy analyzer. Trade-ins are available for current NITON alloy analyzer users.
For recycle applications, alloy sorters can determine directly aluminum alloys, Al in titanium alloys and Al/Si in bronzes. For industrial applications, the non-destructive nature of the XRF technique allows testing of finished or sensitive parts.
