OM-535 is a low-temperature solder paste designed to enable a single reflow application for assembly of double-sided printed circuit boards. Has excellent no-solder drip during reflow. With SBX02 alloy and a melting point below 140°C, it has been used with peak reflow profiles between 155°C and 190°C. Flux residue provides excellent electrical resistivity. Eliminates extra wave or selective wave soldering process when temperature-sensitive through-hole components are used. Eliminates need for managing bar solder, wave soldering flux supplies, and pallets. Allows desired obsolescence of an extra SMT process.

VP800 vapor phase soldering oven now features sensor-based profiling which sets the temperature profile to either linear or step profile. Monitors temperature measurement of each soldering cycle on the product level and the automatic control of the soldering profile. Temperature sensor is heated together with the solder product in the system and is used as a set point for the active process control. Enables simple creation of different product specific soldering profiles. Controls soldering profile according to the measured temperature data. Measures temperature profile for each soldering cycle. Records data for traceability and documentation. Detects nondestructive temperature and heating behaviors of the product.  Enlarged 460 x 610mm process window optimizes process cycle time. Leaded assemblies can be processed with lead-free process fluid without exchange of the process fluid.

AP430 fully automatic inline stencil printer can print 01005 chips, µBGAs, and 12-mil ultra-fine-pitch components. SMEMA-compatible conveyor and PCB holder accommodate boards with print areas up to a maximum of 17.75" x 13.75". Quick-change stencil clamp with programmable stopper accepts large frames up to 29" x 29". High-precision ballscrew drives work in unison with the CCD alignment camera to provide X, Y, and Ɵ axis correction for PCB-to-stencil registration within ±0.0003". In the Z-axis, independent ballscrew control of the PCB height and four-corner ballscrew positioning of the stencil frame ensure coplanarity of the stencil and board surface.  After printing, these same four ballscrews maintain perpendicular and uniform separation of stencil from PCB at a programmable speed for print definition for the particular application.  Stroke, speed and pressure of dual squeegees also fully programmable. Print accuracy said to be ±0.001". Automatic stencil wiper runs in wet or dry mode, with or without vacuum; interval, paper feed and solvent injection are fully programmable.
