Sensitive Wire Feed is a process-reliable handling technology for reproducible solder joints with wire-guided processes. Involves a feed module that can be freely integrated and used for all applications in assembly and interconnection technology and can be combined with different process modules. Helps ensure reproducibility and process reliability during piston and laser soldering. For applying a specific amount of solder when piston, laser, or induction soldering.
Works by feeding wires to process surfaces in a path- and force-monitored manner. The wire's impact force can thus be defined. Wire feed is stopped when this is achieved. Both feed and withdrawal of wire are monitored. Wire kinking is avoided using this function; component and handling tolerances are compensated or detected. Reference points are likewise specified here in order to be able to transport controlled, reproducible amounts of wire. Wire-reel holder is aligned flexibly so that various wire-reel positions as well as reel diameters can be used in the shortest possible time. Work angle can be freely selected. Wire is stably introduced into soldering process in a regulated manner using intelligent sensor technology. C6 controller records all process steps, enabling 100% data capture.
