ALPHA OM-325 lead-free solder is said to simplify the transition to µ-fine feature printing in lead-free processes. Reportedly offers excellent print transfer efficiency, self-alignment properties with small components down to 0402 or 01005", joint cosmetics across challenging reflow profiles, low voiding performance and product stability.
"We developed ALPHA OM-325 in our Japanese R&D center in collaboration with leading global adaptors of lead-free technology for use in their high end consumer electronics products," said Valentijn Van Velthoven, global product manager. "Our rigorous product development work for OM-325 can be compared to what Formula One technology means for the automotive industry. We have achieved tomorrow's technology, and made it available today."
Made with Type 4 and 5 powder, the paste delivers excellent µ-fine feature print yield and works well in demanding high-soak reflow profiles.
PELASPAN-PAC Anti-Static provides cushioning for a range of electronic parts and components to protect them from static discharge during shipment. The pink, s-shaped polystyrene material is free-flowing, cutting packaging time. Weighs 5 pounds per cubic foot - 15% lighter than comparable varieties of packing peanuts. Reusable, recyclable and part of a nationwide reuse program to lessen the loose-fill sent to landfills each year.
Available from 20 facilities nationwide.
FLX2010 SMD pick-and-place has 190 feeders, allowing feeder changeover during operation with nearly no downtime. Can place 5,000 components per hour.
Precision drive technology places 0201 or ultra-fine pitch 0.3 mm components, as well as condensators up to 15 mm, large connectors and 50-mm BGAs. Features both laser and vision centering systems for speed and accuracy.
Feeder management system automatically recognizes feeders and pickup height. LEDs show the feeder status. Feeder setup control system based on barcode identification excludes the risk of setup failure.
Machine programming can be prepared offline. CAD data can be imported; the board is graphically displayed before production.
Optional software system features stock management, production planning, simulation and data recording for traceability.
Can be expanded to a two- or three-module production line for more feeder capacity (up to 300 feeders) and production speed (up to 15,000 cph).
