iSpector Island automatic optical inspection combines iSpector benchtopAOI with full automation. Queues incoming printed circuit boards and sorts into “known good” or “to-be-verified.” Data are downloaded to optional verification station for more efficient tracking and sorting. Works in “lights out” environments. Features 24-bit full-color imaging software, nine-camera hardware, robust algorithms, rapid programming and low false call rates.

Alpine OT2 solder paste contains a flux medium said to eliminate defects related to oxidation and miniaturization. Flux is halogen- and halide-free, and for use with SN100C, SCANGe-071 or SAC305. Is rosin-based and prints at high print speeds (>200 mm/sec). Paste is said to eliminates head-in-pillow defects, and shows no graping or defects.

Mini-Oven Reball/Solder Bumping unit 04 provides controlled air circulation; hot air continually flows around the component, heating it equally from all sides. Offers programmable modes and a nitrogen process gas supply for minimizing solder oxidation. Up to 99 profiles can be stored, with the ability to edit individual profiles and fine-tune parameters. Reballing function is capable of handling diverse range of BGAs, as well as QFNs and CSPs. Rapid Technology soldering profiles apply settings within the permitted thermal limits, heat at the highest advisable thermal ramp rates, and maintain a safe temperature zone. Is ideal for the complete QFN solder bumping process. Uses Hotprint Technology; mask remains on the QFN during reflow.
