The Gold 8 mm dual-lane feeders, for Universal placement equipment, are 0201-capable. Have continuous splice capability, said to improves line yield rates and boost
throughput up to 30%. A PSV reel detection sensor enhances
traceability for line control.
Single lane Black 8 mm and
12 mm electric tape feeders are for medium to low-volume midrange applications.
Offer an alternative to
traditional pneumatic feeders, and guarantee
repeatable part presentation with the precision drive train and ensuring
traceability with a unique feeder ID.
FLO/EMC simulation software reportedly compresses the design cycle by reducing the number of hardware trials required and also makes it possible to evaluate more design alternatives without additional board spins and related costs.
Cobrush flux applicator is a precise, inexpensive
tool for applying liquid flux to tiny chip components and individual
solder joints. Is disposable, and compatible with many different types of
fluxes. Its fine bristle tip applies flux to very small areas
in densely populated assemblies. A transparent cartridge shows the amount of remaining material in the reservoir; its small,
compact size and large capacity make it ideal for most rework and post-assembly
applications. Is constructed of rugged polypropylene, is ergonomic, and can easily be labeled.
Horizon 02i screen printer adds a position-adjustable 15" touchscreen LCD to enhance ease of use and operational speed. Is said to achieve 1.6 Cpk at ±25 µm full paste-on-pad process capability in 12 sec. cycle time. Has up to 508 x 508 mm board size range, and is fitted with ESD-safe transport rails.
Supports the TimeToGo upgrade, for optimizing replenishment intervals for paste, paper and USC solvent, and to predict and plan machine stoppages. Is part of the Instinctiv printer family.
PCNAlert, for component event management, permits customers to receive manufacturers’ part change notices in a timely fashion.
The tool ranks manufacturers based on their notification process. With this ranking, design engineers and procurement groups can assess the risk of using parts from a particular manufacturer. It also checks manufacturers’ Websites daily looking for posted notices about part changes.
Includes AVLalert, which monitors approved vendor lists and approved manufacturer lists for product change notifications (PCNs) and end-of-life notices; and BOMverifier, an automatic on-demand BoM and parts list scrubber.
The PalletPal Rotator can be used to rotate fully loaded pallets, replace broken pallets, and switch to or from in-house/shipping pallets, transfer loads to slip sheets, and replace damaged goods at the bottom of a load without the need for manual restacking.
Handles loads up to 48 x 48 x 60" with capacities up to 4400 lbs. Loads rotate a full 180° on a massive anti-friction turret bearing and can be stopped at any point during rotation.
