B2 Benchtop automated optical inspection system for post-reflow PCBs is said to offer up to a three times improvement in inspection speed and improved fusion lighting to provide defect coverage. Features large board handling in a compact package, and complete software/board setup compatibility with the inline F1 series.
Operators typically take less than 30 min. to create a complete inspection program including solder joints. Uses a stand package library to simplify training and ensure program portability across manufacturing lines. Image processing technology integrates several techniques, including color, normalized correlation and rule-based algorithms to provide inspection coverage with a low false failure rate.

YESPC software provides real-time process monitoring. Continuously monitors inspection results, so users can immediately react to critical process events. In a networked environment, user defined charts and alarms can be accessed remotely via Web browsers. It can also provide email alerts.
Provides diagnostic and trending analysis of the manufacturing process.
Features a package of SPC charts, including X-bar range, X- moving range, histogram, Pareto analysis, scatter plot, Cp, CpK and other reports that provide real-time alarms for out-of-tolerance conditions. Compatible with YESTech AOI and YTX-5000 combined x-ray/vision system.

MEP 6T servo electric press specializes in the application of compliant pin connectors to PCBs.
Uses a PC-controlled servo drive to control and monitor force, position and speed throughout the press cycle. By monitoring the entire press cycle, it can determine if a connector is being applied incorrectly and stop the process to avoid scrap and rework. Complete press cycle data can be stored for each connector applied to provide full traceability for the entire PCB.
Programming is provided through a Windows interface with database-driven software. Each connector can be pressed to a different level of force or distance without any operator setup.
Connectors can be terminated on force or distance while providing control of the speed of the press cycle, including the ability to dwell for a specified time. Can be used in applications other than press-fit connectors such as PEM nuts, rivets and heat sinks.
Provides up to 6 tons of pressing capacity, can accommodate PCBs up to 24 x 36". The 10" wide press ram allows for the mass-termination of more than one connector (of the same type) in a single press stroke. Options include an air table to allow for easy PCB movement and tooling stack up, tool-in-place sensor to ensure proper tool location and complete turnkey solutions including insertion tooling and PCB fixtures.

The Commercial Products division of Branson introduces support racks for the bottom of the ultrasonic tank. Parts baskets are required to suspend items in the solution, however they are not practical for all ultrasonic cleaning applications. Support racks provide a stable, flat surface upon which parts, fixtures, or containers may be placed. Open design with integral rubberized “feet” will not inhibit chemistry circulation or ultrasonic energy.
Also useful as countertop support racks following cleaning or processing. Hold containers or components off the table to facilitate air circulation and drying. A range of sizes is provided to access the full volume of your tank. Have stainless construction for chemical compatibility, electro-welded design for durability, bright electro polished finish for cleanliness. For use with .5 to 5.5 gal units.

Until now, optical chips have been cut out of a silicon wafer and then placed individually into housings. However, the dimensions of these casings are several times the size of the chip itself.
Schott’s Thin-Glass Wafer-Level-Package with BGA on the backside concept aims to manufacture miniature opto-housings.
Instead of packaging individual chips, the technique “packs“ the more than 1000 chips that the entire wafer yields at the same time.
Production started at the Electronic Packaging business unit in Singapore last October. The company aims to manufacture approx. 3 million chips per month with its staff of 65 employees.

CSM 200 Connector Seating Machine is a semiautomatic machine for the application of compliant pin connectors. A BMEP servo electric press allows for the monitoring and control of force, distance and speed during the press process.
Operators manually load a PCB and connectors onto fixtures and tooling. The CSM automatically positions the connectors on the PCB and then an X/Y table with PCB fixture locates the PCB (up to 8 x 11") under the servo press head for processing the connector. Automatically sequentially presses each connector on the PCB to the required specifications. Each press cycle is monitored and can be stopped if an error occurs. Each press cycle can be recorded to provide real-time feedback with full traceability for every connector applied.
Specializes in processing right-angle board edge connectors with non-overmolded pins. Uses “comb” tooling to ensure proper location of the pin legs to the hole pattern in the PCB ¾ allowingr faster processing, less scrap and lower applied cost.
