EO-G-001 water-based flux for selective soldering is halogen-free flux and meets all criteria under DIN EN 61190-1-1 and ISO 9454 for surface resistance. In tests, flux propagation area is less than that of alcohol-based fluxes tested, while rise-through and pad wetting were not adversely affected and soldering results were more than satisfactory. Cleanliness was as good or better than alcohol-based fluxes. Is classified OR/L0 under DIN EN 61190-1-1 or type 2.1.3.A under ISO 9454.

Dualbond LT2216 dual-curing adhesive, for electronic and optoelectronic automotive and consumer applications, reaches full strength within 90 minutes at 60°C after prefixation by light.
ML-5120A 120W direct diode laser (DDL) welder for soldering and plastic welding has low power consumption and high efficiency. Features localized heating for small parts welding and manufacturing applications with space limitations. Comes with temperature control function, which requires a separate dedicated unit to control laser output power. Directly applies light emitted from laser diodes (LDs) for thermal processing– without passing through a lasing medium, such as Ytterbium (Yb)-doped fiber or Nd:YAG (neodymium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet). Generates an invisible IR wavelength of 915nm. Small spot diameter of 0.2 millimeters enables fine soldering in small areas as well as high-density, small-pitch areas. Equipped with power monitor as standard equipment.
