Reel-to-Reel (R2R) precision screen printing enables manufacturers to deposit advanced materials onto flexible substrates directly from the reel. Is said to be able to print onto substrates typically up to 150 m in length and 500 mm wide. Is said to be ideal for use with flexible printed circuits, organic LED substrates, non-conductive materials, fuel cell membranes and a wide range of foils, papers and composites. Applications range from rope lights and lighting systems to automotive instruments, mobile phones, RFID tag technologies and laptop PCs. Reportedly replaces the conventional transport system used to drive boards in and out of the print area with three vacuum beds and a clamping system.

ElepguardSL 1303 Nano-AQ-FLZ is a water-borne conformal coating based on acrylate resin with nano filling agents. Is colorless, transparent and fluorescent. Offers the properties of inorganic fillers without inhibiting clarity. The filling agents are said to improve the barrier effect – and thus film density – adhesion and chemical resistance. Is said to have high elasticity and mechanical stability, resist scratches and abrasions, and provide cold flexibility and thermal shock resistance. Meets IPC-CC-830 requirements. Solvent-removable.

Inocart-MSD manages moisture sensitive devices. Has individual cell design and is said to manage multiple component reel sizes and waffle trays in a low relative humidity safe storage condition. Includes MSD tracking and timing software solution. Is available in two configurations: 66 individual cells and 33 individual cells. Features cells that disengage from the centralized “hive” when the door is opened. Uses multiple forced convection desiccant drying modules. Manages MSD levels of 2, 2a 3, 4, 5 and 5a.

Aquavator stencil wiping fabric is said to merely require water to activate solder cleaning agent. Reportedly contains harmless chemicals embedded throughout ESD fibers. Said to be safer for people and the environment and to prevent spills, flammability issues and shelf-life concerns. Is Pb-free and vacuum compatible.

High-Tech Conversions Inc., www.high-techconversions.com

The Triton three-way dispensing system is available on the FiberCare line of fiber optic cleaning solvents. Is said to improve the quality of fiber optic cleaning. From a single can, users can dispense the solvent three different ways: with a hands-free mode to wet a lint-free wipe with solvent for cleaning connector end-faces, cleaning bare fiber or optical components; a dip mode to dampen a cleaning swab for cleaning connector end-faces inside alignment sleeves or fusion splicer V-grooves, and a spray mode to squirt solvent to flush contaminated areas such as alignment sleeves, adaptor caps or spray on any contaminated surface for cleaning. Changing between modes is reportedly instantaneous.
