Super Scopedelivers high-resolution, real-time color images, without the eye fatigue and back pain associated with long hours of microscope use. Users can easily capture images for archiving, e-mailing, etc., for reference and other uses.
Features a 14" medical grade, self-contained LCD video system combined with a high resolution/high sensitivity custom 1/2" camera; the combined elements provide clear, crisp images. Also features audio and extra video input and output ports.
Images are displayed on the system’s LCD display, and can be captured and transferred via email with voice-over to anyone over the Internet. A frame grabber and microphone are sold separately.
Images can be viewed in real-time by more than one person, offering opportunities for training, oversight or supervisor examination of questionable issues, etc. Offers a range of applications in medical, general inspection and contract assembly applications.
Has a standard magnification range of 4 - 45X, and up to 90x with an optional 2x lens.
For customers requiring a small footprint solution that can sort PASS/FAIL products after AOI, Promationhas updated its ENB-700 conveyorized station.
The inline handling solution houses a single, removable magazine. PCBs that “PASS” inspections are transferred through the ENB station to the next process through use of standard SMEMA. PCBs that “FAIL” inspection are transferred into a “50 slot” removable magazine, and stored for future inspection and/or rework.
Features include “One Touch” control panel, PCB counter, selectable pitch (10 to 50 mm) and sliding magazine platform (for ergonomic removal of full magazine).
DataMan 7500 series handheld direct part mark readers read all printed and Direct Part Mark (DPM) codes for manufacturers implementing part traceability programs in the automotive, aerospace, electronics, healthcare and defense industries. “Rapid adoption of DPM identification for part traceability has manufacturers demanding a rugged, self-contained reader that performs consistently on all types of codes and parts,” said Justin Testa, Sr. VP, ID Products. “The DataMan 7500 sets a new performance standard for handheld DPM readers, reliably reading everything from the most challenging DPM codes to the easiest printed barcodes. And the new reader is rugged enough to withstand up to 50 drops to concrete from two meters.” The handheld ID readers combine IDMax code reading software with an UltraLight illumination technology to read codes regardless of marking method, part material, shape or surface texture. The series includes the 7500 corded and 7550 cordless models. Cognex teamed with Hand Held Products on the development of the readers. Cognex Corp., cognex.com Hand Held Products, handheld.com
Promation has developed a line of 200 and 300 mm wafer handling systems for loading and unloading the line.
EWL-700 (loader) and EWU-700 (unloader) are single cassette handling systems that are 10K clean room compliant. Wafers may be safely transported from and into Fluoroware or other type magazine cassettes within a small footprint.
Visiprise Manufacturing 4.1 builds on its integrated manufacturing platform rolled out earlier this year. Said to provide increased performance and scalability while improving system security. New features include: Integrated Product Dashboard: allows users to view work instructions, assembly components and data collection requirements through a single, configurable dashboard. Device History Record Reports: for manufacturers producing items requiring compliance, displays a complete history of a product through a single view or record. Time-based Component Traceability: includes feeder staging for faster machine changeover for electronics manufacturers. Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP): permits authentication using secure, single sign-on when accessing the application across the Internet. Enhanced Data Collection: enables manufacturers to require that certain data be approved and validated and supports the use of formulas.
Speedprint Technology Ltd., a division of Blakell Europlacer Group, is offering Novatec’s VacuNest Shape Memory Tool on its printer platforms through an OEM supply agreement.
The shape memory tool combines the benefits of a custom tooling plate with the versatility of pins. An antistatic membrane covers a foam former surrounded by polymer granules. Simply place a golden board onto the modules, press down, pull a vacuum and the memory of the board shape profile is held. The chambers are profiled to the shape of the underside of the board ¾ on activation of the vacuum this shape is now held. The shape will be held until the vacuum is released, and the modules return to their original form awaiting the next version of board.
Will not damage a component due to the pin/printing pressure, support forces are evenly spread over the entire board, provides firm and precise support and can be simply reset when a board version changes.
Eliminates the cost of a custom tooling plate as well as pin tooling. Can handle high-density boards with ease and requires little to no lead-time.
Said to guarantee board flatness; is not sensitive to solder paste contamination.
