Compact Desktop System S2088 provides automated optical inspection of paste print and pre/post reflow. Suited for serial production during shift work, prototype programming, prototype laboratory development or as testing support for new assemblies.
Covers all inspection stages – paste print, pre and post reflow. Features a new high-resolution color camera. The illumination is compatible with existing Viscom systems, the software and programming environment is identical. Programs can be imported to in-line. The loading is carried out via a PCB drawer with single-button operation. PCBs up to 17.7 x 15.7” can be handled.
System processor, axis control and all other important components are integrated into the compact design. This makes external cabling unnecessary. Has precise linear drives with high resolution measuring systems. Mmachine capability tests can be carried out.
Viscom will have a booth at the SMT/Hybrid/Packaging Show, Hall 7, Stand 7-211.

Lead Eliminator uses a combination of chelating agents and other ingredients to lift and remove lead and heavy metals from a variety of surfaces such as Formica (commonly found in workbenches), stainless steel and aluminum, Lexan and other polymers, as well as materials found in and around SMT manufacturing lines, including painted surfaces and flooring. Has low toxicity.
Employs a combined proprietary chemistry and wipe technology that picks up and remediates lead and other heavy metals from work surfaces, tools, etc. Dual action remediation wipes and sprays remove heavy metals, soil and residue from affected surfaces.
Is part of the GlobalTech family of environmentally responsible products. Available in saturated wipes with one abrasive side and one smooth side in 100-count canisters of 6 x 9” wipes, or in one-pint spray bottles. Sold separately or as part of a lead remediation kit.

EMI Filters with optional surge suppression can be mounted with ¼” quick connect terminals; can be used wherever needed to control EMI – even multiple locations within a piece of equipment. Fully encapsulated construction complies with EN 133200 and UL 1283, while a UL94 VO plastic enclosure increases protection against electrical shock. Leakage current is reduced by eliminating the capacitor to earth ground connection. RoHS-compliant filters are ideal for appliances, medical devices, industrial equipment, motor control, lighting, recreational vehicles and more.
Available for 100 to 120 or 200 to 240 line voltages, provide high levels of EMI suppression in a convenient package. Standard models incorporate 5.0 mH common mode inductors suitable for up to 6 amp service. Options include bypass capacitors for increased differential mode noise rejection, and MOVs to protect against line transients. Custom configurations and multiple stage filters available.

Checker 101E uses patterns to detect and inspect parts, for reliability. Offers the simplicity and power of the original, plus it directly accepts encoder signals, eliminating the need for a PLC when tracking and rejecting parts on variable-speed production lines.
“The simple-to-use Checker 101 sensor radically changed the way sensor users detect parts or part features, eliminating the complex wiring, mounting, ladder logic programming, and precise part handling required when using multiple photoelectric sensors,” said Brian Phillips, VP, expert sensors. “By directly accepting encoder signals, the Checker 101E eliminates the cost and complexity of a PLC for part tracking and rejection on variable-speed lines. Unlike the shift register of a PLC, which requires programming, Checker’s shift register is automatic, enabling it to accurately track up to 4,000 parts between the inspection and rejection point.”
Acquires and processes over 500 images/sec., can detect and inspect parts on fast production lines. If inspection is not required, it can detect and track parts or webs for improved process control.

Crysta-Apex C1600/2000 Series coordinate measuring machines (CMMs) handle measurement of large auto body and airframe assemblies and similarly sized components.
The large, bridge-type machines incorporate four-loop control to reduce cost and maintain accuracy. The low acquisition cost makes it feasible to bring CMM capabilities to inspect large workpieces used in the manufacture of heavy equipment, marine construction, automotive powertrain, etc.
The multi-sensor system uses high-speed, non-contacting digitizing probes (two- or three-axis) and a variety of scanning, vision or conventional touch probe inputs. When equipped with the SP80 long stylus (max 500 mm), it is capable of deep hole measurement. System software compensates for temperature and surface variations to ensure quality data acquisition under varying conditions.

SolderStar will use Nepcon Shanghai to launch three easy-to-use thermal profiling packages, designed for the technical and budgetary requirements of low, medium and high volume Pb-free electronics manufacturing environments – SolderStar Lite, SolderStar Plus and SolderStar Pro. Visit booth 2J25-9 at the exhibit.
The range is lead-free compliant and fulfills the need for fast, precise profiling and process control. Typically, clients can achieve an optimal thermal profile after 30 min. and perhaps two or three runs through the reflow oven.

Incorporating up-to-date battery technology, the instruments are said to have a higher working temperature than most alternatives, and they incorporate heat shielding, which keeps them cool even at higher processing temperatures. Measure just 20 to 25 mm thick. This makes them ideal for use in modern reflow ovens with limited tunnel height, typically used in the manufacture of miniaturised products, such as mobile phones.
SolderStar Lite works for the small manufacturer or as an entry-level or second system. It includes four-channel Neptune datalogger, a Pb-free capable heat-barrier and a standard software suite including a solderpaste thermal profile library, and analysis and control capabilities.
SolderStar Plus offers a six-channel Neptune datalogger with a high-performance heat barrier, and simulation software for ultra-fast profile set-up.
SolderStar Pro includes the Neptune SL datalogger with up to 12 channels for demanding processes and PCBs, as well as full-feature software that includes SPC capabilities. It can be used with accessories to optimize wave soldering processes and profiles, and is ideal for medium to large manufacturers who profile continuously as part of an ongoing quality control strategy.
