Stamped Circuit Board thermal management draws heat away from beneath the chip quickly. Combines structured layers of metal and plastic for use in substrate assemblies. Is based on a reel-to-reel concept and offers possibilities to automate production. Possible solutions: with versatile stamping, materials can be inflected and stamped; the resulting shape stabilizes the substrate and fixates the lenses; open choice of many different materials and thicknesses; simpler operation, and quicker separation.

S2088BO-II automatic optical wirebond inspection desktop system is available. Was developed to inspect medium and small product runs, delivering defect detection on die, ball-wedge, wedge-wedge and security bonds. Reportedly guarantees reliable defect detection to cover typical bonds. During inspection, a high-res camera records all bond sites and wires. Inspects aluminum thick wire and aluminum, or gold thin wire connections, down to diameters of 17 μm. Inspection library includes inspection patterns for damaged and misplaced components. Is 100 % compatible with all Viscom inline systems; can be employed as a programming station.

Tridak Model 475 diaphragm valves are designed to be used with low-to-medium viscosity fluids. Internal design prevents fluid contact with actuating components; reportedly ideal for reactive fluids such as cyanoacrylates and solvent-based adhesives and coatings. Minimal valve maintenance is required. Offer stroke adjustment. Are available in three configurations: Standard Model 475 features an UHMW polyethylene diaphragm, acetyl copolymer fluid body, and hard-coated aluminum air cylinder body; Model 475-T valve features a Teflon diaphragm and fluid body with a hard-coated aluminum air cylinder body; Model 475-SA valve incorporates an UHMW polyethylene diaphragm, passivated stainless steel fluid body, and hard-coated aluminum air cylinder body.

Trident OneShot automatic defluxing and cleanliness testing system is designed to provide automatic cleaning (de-fluxing), cleanliness testing, and drying of post-reflow circuit assemblies. Includes a 16" touch-screen interface, shadow-reducing focus-wash technology, unlimited recipe quantities, Windows PC control platform, networking capabilities, and real-time cleanliness testing. Features optional barcode scanning and SQL database searches. Is capable of removing all flux/paste residues (rosin, no-clean, water-soluble) from any alloy, and is designed to use a selection of pre-dosed defluxing chemistries. Boards are cleaned, cleanliness tested, and dried in less than 30 min.
