Desicorr Pouches NW (No Window)are designed to protect goods within a sealed moisture barrier package. Easy to insert manually or automatically. No degreasing or cleaning of parts required. Absorb moisture that builds up inside packaging. Feature a breathable membrane, permitting desiccant to absorb moisture more quickly through both sides of the pouch. Are commercially equivalent to MIL-D-3464E, Type I & Type II. Come in several unit sizes for a maximum single pouch protection volume of 1.5 ft3 (42 L) with 23.1-gram moisture absorption capacity at 77°F, 75% relative humidity.

TS8100 series positive displacement PC pump is a volumetric dispense pump based on progressive cavity technology. Uses a stator and rotor design to provide accurate and consistent dispensing. Pump can dispense low-viscosity coatings to high-viscosity greases. Turning rotor moves fluid in sealed cavities through stator’s fluid chambers to create a volumetric fluid flow that does not change the shape or size of the fluid. Accuracy and repeatability of ±1% reportedly is achievable. Comes standard with syringe bracket, mounting bracket kit, luer lock fitting, cleaning kit and dispensing tip selection pack. Applications include underfilling PCB components, encapsulation and potting applications, applying lubrication on automotive parts, and dispensing pastes and flux.

Analog Z-Class sensors now comes with embedded digital technology for 10th order polynomial resolution. Is said to be accurate to within +-1% at 250°C. Also provides precise intra-ocular LED targeting of the area to be measured, eliminating independent laser finders that require merging the detector, the laser, and distance to target. Specifically designed for rework applications. Focusable to measure single point surface area targets within a diameter range of to 1-12mm without having to account for distance to target calculations. Offers accurate in-process control for densely populated PCB rework tasks involving very small packages in addition to QFNs, QFPs, microBGAs, connectors and high sphere count super BGAs.

2C51 two-part silicone conformal coating and potting material is fast curing and has high dielectric strength. Provides protection if used to encapsulate a printed circuit board. A one to one mix ratio ensures accurate blending of the two parts. Autocatalytic cure enables curing without applied heat; can be accelerated with mild temperature increase. Full cure can be achieved in 30 min. at 70°C or 60 min. at room temperature.

Nozzle Health Care checks SMT placement machine nozzle health after cleaning or periodically as determined by user. Examines outside of nozzle dirt or foreign objects, and checks functionality, including clogging, center correction, and O-ring health. Automatically self-diagnoses nozzle appearance and functionality, and replaces faulty or flagged nozzles with spare ones without interrupting production.
Maintenance Monitor simplifies maintenance by helping the operator implement a maintenance plan, all guided by a simple-to-follow Maintenance Monitor interface. Monitors a number of functions, and alerts when periodic maintenance is required. Shows when future maintenance tasks are due, and provides a chronological log of previous maintenance actions completed. Helps plan detailed, customized maintenance routine for the machine in its unique production environment.
e-Vision helps operator fine-tune machine performance, enabling operators to perform optimization functions including automatic algorithm selection, automated part size measurement, and auto part tuning. Permits the machine to measure part parameters automatically, rather than manually by the operator, speeding setup, improving placement performance, and minimizing part dumping.
New Grouping Optimization optimizes planned production for a shift, providing such information as estimations for run times and changeover, along with the most efficient setup to minimize setup of feeders and exchange carts. Makes decisions for multiple products in one setup to maximize line productivity by minimizing changeover requirements. Based on commonality of components, reflow profile, and combining top and bottom requirements, engineers then set their own priority and classification to define the individual groups. Reduces feeder setup and changeover time, resulting in higher machine utilization and efficiency.
