MSD 1200 Series desiccant cabinets include a modular enclosure offering access from two sides that can be expanded to meet production needs and a new dry unit with closed loop on-demand regeneration. Said to exceed IPC J-STS-033B.1 requirements for handling moisture-sensitive devices. U5001 "Dynamic Series" Zeolite dryers feature dehumidification, reportedly enabling a basic MSD1212 to take 240 sec. to move from 50% RH to less than 5% under unloaded conditions at 25°C. Optimal humidity levels are below 0.5% RH. Designed to regenerate only when necessary. If there are no door openings the dry unit will not regenerate and therefore consume less power. Integrated cabinet and dry unit design for quiet and maintenance-free operation. Average power consumption 30W per hour.

REScan reverse engineering software aids the Flying Scorpion double-sided flying probe system. With XMatic CAD translation tool set, semiautomatic steps have been replaced with fully automated software processes. Speeds through field returns with no data available; aids in deciding if a board is repairable or needs replacement.

KE-1070/KE-1080 modular placement systems use the same topology as KE-2070/KE-2080 machines. KE-1070 has a four-nozzle head with a rated IPC 9850 speed of 15,500 CPH and a component placement range from 01005 to 33.5 mm2. KE-1080 adds a fifth nozzle to handle larger parts and uses a tricolored vision system featuring blue, green and red LEDs for placement of fine-pitch ICs, connectors and odd-shaped components. Has an IPC 9850 rated speed of 14,100 CPH for chips and 3,400 CPH for IC components. Effective component placement range is 01005 to 74 mm2. Both use LNC60 optical centering laser built into the head. Feature detection of exact height of nozzle tip, bent nozzle detection and a tombstone pick check. Are compatible with all current Juki feeders and trolleys.

Bath Analyzer 10 has been upgraded to include a digital thermometer displaying both ºC and ºF. Measures concentration and indicates alkalinity of baths containing Atron and Vigon cleaning agents. Developed as alternative to Refractive Index method; designed to monitor chemical bath concentrations regardless of dissolved organics (i.e., fluxes). Said to extend overall bath life. One case includes all tools to measure concentration; a color coding system indicates the bath’s alkalinity. Can serve as a calibration metrology for refractive index measurements by controlling any deviation caused by flux loading.
