BP Microsystems will showcase the latest addition to its automated device programmer family, the Helix, in Wong Kong King (WKK)’s booth 1F15 at Nepcon China/EMT China, scheduled to take place April 4-7, in Shanghai.
With the introduction of the Helix programming system, device programming customers can get the quality of automated device handling at a lower price point than traditionally available.
The desktop automated system comes with two precision-designed tube input and output handling systems. Integrated in the handler are two BP Micro Enhanced 7
th Generation programming sites with FX4 socket module capability. This technology can program up to four devices simultaneously per site. Can handle a range of packages including MSOP, SOIC, PLCC, SSOP and TSSOP. A tray-only version will be available at a later date.
The operational sequence of the machine picks the part from tube input, transfers the part to the programming socket, programs the part and returns the part to tube output. Integrated motors open and close programming sites in synchronization with the placement and retrieval of parts. The tooling head requires no vision system for handling fine-pitched parts, for an overall throughput of 800 devices/hr. One computer and software interface controls both BPWin software and handler control operations.
