Elektrobit exhibited a range of equipment at Productronica in November. The focus was on a complete JOT Automation line, featuring a Bare Board Unstacker, Laser Marker, Segment Conveyor, High-Speed Router and Single Flat Belt Conveyor.
J904-033 Tray Feeder Vivian Ultra features fast tray feeding using two shuttles and a compact tray feeder to enhance tray transportation to and from the robot working area. The tray dimensions and tray feeding height are adjustable to accommodate a range of product sizes.
J501-44 High-Speed Router uses grippers to hold the panel in place, ensuring short cycle duration. Cutting speed is up to 60 mm/s, depending on the layout and material of routed product, with a cutting accuracy of ±0.15 mm.
J401-11 Tiny Test Handler was shown with new display tester software, able to test small LCD displays, keyboards and housings of electronics equipment. It claims to offer high accuracy display defect detection and immunity to significant variations in illumination, part orientation and the display’s protection tape.

Automated conformal coating production line will begin coating the bottom-side (wire side) with a Prism 100 (designed for high-speed coating). The board will then pass through a board inverter to a Prism 350 to be selectively coated on the component side.
Prism Coating Systems are designed for precise application of conformal coatings and other low-viscosity materials. Feature Ultra-Spray technology, said to enable a more accurate, precise coating application than conventional spray and dispensing technology.
Uses a titanium coating head and digitally controlled liquid delivery system. The coating head applies a thin, defect free coating 1 to 5 mils in thickness and reportedly provides uniformity and repeatability.

9600 Series Vibration Isolation Workstation for use in cleanrooms is constructed of stainless steel using cylindrical welded braces for maximum rigidity, minimum flat surfaces and easy wipedown.
An enclosed isolation module, stainless steel valves and vented exhaust maintain compliance with Class 1 and 10 cleanroom standards. Available with electropolish finish (Class 1) or clear passivate finish (Class 10).
Features low natural frequencies and high isolation efficiencies. Under maximum load at 80 psi and 10 Hz, typical vibration isolation efficiencies are 93% with a vertical natural frequency of 1.5 Hz and 95% with a horizontal natural frequency of 1.6 Hz. Has isolated weight capacity of either 800 or 1300 lbs.
Feature the proprietary Active-Air Suspension system ¾ a dual-chamber compressed-air system for vibration damping and a preset “zero deflection” level to compensate for load changes.
Tables are available up to 36” deep and 60” wide. Accessories include guard rails, fixed or sliding shelves, and monitor supports.

The portable USC 400 ultrasonic cleaning system can be taken directly to the stencil printer to clean stencil apertures without the need to reset and calibrate the printer. When the system is offline, it can be used in conjunction with a bench-mounted or stand-alone stencil cleaner.
Features Direct On-Contact Ultrasonic Cleaning to remove Pb-free solder paste particles trapped within stencil apertures.
Benefits include: minimal use of fluids, total aperture penetration, no risk of stencil damage and robust construction. Can be used with solder paste or SMD adhesives, is suitable for stainless and plastic stencils. Cleans pick-and-place nozzles, dispensing needles and probe test pins, and can soften solder paste.
An ultrasonic cup with a dwell timer is optional.
