KFS-VAF volumetric atomized flux applicator is for selective soldering. Controls and dispenses atomized flux material on demand via a user-programmable control system. Does not require any mechanical adjustments. Spray volume and width is set by user-programmed control parameters; varying amounts of coverage can be accomplished as needed on the same printed circuit board. Can be used with all known fluxes, even up to 33% solids. Can be integrated with the KFSDJ drop jet fluxer.

FX-3R high-speed modular mounter has higher production capacity than FX-3: 90,000 CPH (0.040 sec./chip under optimal conditions). Is equipped with linear servomotors in the X and Y axes to drive the heads. The weight of the head has been reduced; the head design has a more rigid structure. Supports large boards up to 610 mm x 560 mm (XL board specification) as a standard feature; offers an optional feature to produce a long board up to 800 mm wide, mainly used for LED lighting. Includes hybrid tape feeder feature; accepts both electric and mechanical tape feeders in one machine.
