CC7090E and CC7130-E Prima Protect conformal coatings are for moisture and salt fog protection. Offer moisture, salt fog and direct immersion protection for electrical contacts, electronic circuits and devices, printed wiring boards, and structures made with metal, wood and plastics. Are molecularly flexible for good adhesion; resist abrasion. Have flexibility to withstand low temperature cracking, fungicide to provide protection in submerged environments, and are non-silicone and electrically insulating. Are designed to meet IPC-CC-830 requirements with UV inspection dye and fungi-resistance. Can be brushed, dipped or sprayed on.

MR Series placement machines include 4th generation linear motors, electronic eX feeders, and machine and NPI software. Feeder capacity is 120 slots; part capacity is 25mm. Smart eX feeders reportedly index six times faster than previous design. Series includes four models: two single gantry, single conveyor, and two dual gantry dual conveyor models. Include two versions of heads on the single or dual gantry drive system. Higher-speed machines have six module-type heads per gantry; flexible versions have four precision heads per gantry. ZHMD sensor electronically measures Z height of stick and tray parts.

DeltaProbe is an add-on technology for periodic profile capture. Offers process control without the need for test boards. Uses Smartlink interface; can hold product and process recipe information. Measurement sensors capture process records without a test card or wires. Is fitted to an adjustable frame; can be changed to the width of the printed circuit board being measured. Matched sensors show performance problems across the width of the oven heater. There are independent limit settings per oven zone. Can be used once a temperature profile is captured from a real test PCB.

Pro Series automated fluid dispensing system integrates vision and laser height sensing with closed-loop encoding to provide a complete automated solution that is quick to set up, easy to program and operate. Smart vision CCD camera captures detailed component part images and converts them into high resolution digital files. PRO4L Series includes fully integrated laser height sensing that detects height variations on the surface of a product and makes corrections to dispensing height to prevent uneven deposits and tip or workpiece damage. Novel DispenseMotion software simplifies setup and facilitates programming with an onscreen preview of dispensing path. Dispense tip can be driven to precise point needed. Eases importing and converting of DXF, CAD, and Excel files. True three-dimensional motion control allows easy programming of dots, lines, circles, arcs, compound arcs, and complex patterns. Comes in platform sizes of 200 x 200, 300 x 300, 400 x 400 and 500 x 500.
