KISS selective soldering machines now have a dual nozzle option. Two nozzles operate in tandem, each one individually programmable. A board with components of different sizes can be processed in a single pass. Both nozzles operate within a single soldering sequence program. Can process a small component using a 3 mm or 6 mm nozzle, as well as a larger multi-row connector on the same PCB using a 12 mm or 18 mm nozzle.

CB-400 COBRA-4 features a dual-head blue and white light LED flashlight, which enables leak checking and internal component inspection into hard-to-reach areas. Blue-light LED is for fluorescent leak detection, while the white-light LED is for component inspection. Press-fit coupler permits quick and easy attachment of the flashlight to the borescope. Includes clip-on, angled inspection mirror for detecting flaws normally hidden from view.

Cion ICT Adapter is a relay card for integration into fixture adapter systems for ICT. Enables switching of 32 test channels from the ICT to Scanflex. Prohibits a collision of both systems’ signals; minimizes dynamic effects because of multiple wiring at critical nets. Two LEDs indicate 5 V supply and activation state. Is available in different assembly variants: Relay Adapter SL is equipped with pin contact strips and suits bird nest wiring by wire wrap into adapter systems, as well as wiring a 50-pin ribbon cable, as used in DIO plug modules; Relay Adapter BU and Relay Adapter BU90 are single-sided, equipped with connector strips; enable direct pluggable connection to Cion Modules such as FXT96 in both horizontal and vertical directions. Can be used with plug-in card transceivers. Boundary scan TAP signals are switched with relay adapter similar to TIC02/SR modules. Switching 32 PIP signals is possible with one card.

Ledcheck VIII automatically tests color, wavelength and light intensity of LEDs on PCBs while under test on automatic test equipment. Each module can accommodate eight LEDs; modules can be cascaded for additional channels. Each channel measures the true color of the LED under test and provides an analog output to the test system proportional to the wavelength of the light detected from the LED. Using digital channel addressing, the channel selection is under control of the test system.
