The Medalist x6000 AXI reportedly reduces manufacturing conversion costs without compromising defect-detection capability. Is said to more than double the throughput of market-leading 3D solutions. Reportedly the only one to deliver high-throughput 3D coverage that can be used to inspect the entire board. Said to reduce implementation barriers caused by high employee turnover in outsourced regions by providing a new development environment that incorporates several automatic test development features that help new users to develop high-quality programs in half the time previously required. Ready to ship in May 2007.
NSpec Linea DL20 is for post-print, -placement or -reflow inspection. Is reportedly quick to program and debug, and a comprehensive stamp library shortens inspection time. Features full-color inspection and a low false call rate. For post reflow inspection, comes with multiple illumination techniques, including a diffuse on-axis light module.
PCB pad repair kit and associated repair materials include “how to” slides, a large selection of different pad sizes and tools required to make repairs. Designed to reduce time spent trimming pads located on circuit frames.
Kimtech Pure presaturated alcohol wipes dispenser provides one-handed dispensing with no need to hold a package or re-seal a closing flap. Features a self-closing, self-sealing lid that helps prevent dry-out of wipers; an extractor arm that automatically lifts each wiper for easy pickup without damaging the wipers; and a durable design that generates no particles and makes refilling easy.
DispenseJetDJ-9000 reportedly dispenses precise amounts of wax onto discrete locations on a chip, keeping biological test fluids in place and contaminant-free. Can jet fluids into spaces as tight as 175 µm, and reportedly achieves fillet sizes of 300 µm, dot diameters of 0.20 mm, shot volumes of 1.0 nL, and a jet stream size as small as 50 µm. Jets fluids with viscosities from 1 to 250,000 cps. Is automated, noncontact, and can be used for lab-on-a-chip applications in all stages of development and manufacturing.
ScanInspect FPT fixtureless flying probe tester for bare boards can be used as a standalone or with bed-of-nails fixtures. Comes in four configurations designed to handle substrates from 0.8" x 0.8" to 24.4" x 20" and 0.006" to 0.256" thick. Probes are capable of testing as small as 0.003" on 0.005" spacing. Accepts Gerber RS274D, RS274X, IPC-D-356A or Probot-HLS data.
