Ten different models of desiccant cabinets are available in two model series; prevent moisture traces by maintaining a relative humidity level of < 5%. Have capacities ranging from 5.8 ft3 to 44.1 ft.3 Dry boxes prevent RH moisture absorption that vaporizes and expands within surface mount components during reflow.

Sarcon 30HR silicone-based thin film exhibits a 1.7 W/m°K thermal conductivity when placed between a heat source such as a semiconductor and heatsink. Eliminates air gaps between components. Increased surface contact can improve cooling performance of a heatsink. Has a thermal resistance of 0.42°Cin2/W and is recommended for applications with operational temperatures that range from -60° to +180°C. The V-0 flame-retardant thin film comes in roll widths up to 85mm.

Alternative Tracks permits components to be installed in multiple tracks of the component cart. When the first feeder runs empty, the system automatically switches to an alternate, which can be set up on any track of the component cart. Designed for applications where splicing should be avoided or where traceability is needed at the component level. If a component reel runs out, the job can continue running non-stop with predefined alternative components. When a track is empty, the system automatically switches to a feeder and components on an alternative track. The respective feeders and components can be set up on the same component cart. Operators can set up alternative tracks in advance as part of the product setup or immediately before the primary track is about to run empty.

In-Sight 7010 is an entry-level vision system developed for inspection tasks where vision sensors are too limited. Includes autofocus optics and integrated lighting. Applications are configured with EasyBuilder user interface. Vision library focuses on tools most frequently used. Is reportedly ideal for production situations requiring regular part changes, or applications that require vision system to be placed in hard-to-reach spaces. Can set and save focus values associated with inspection of each part. Can fine-tune focus levels manually. Includes five lens options.
