FRANKLIN, MA, Jan. 20 - Speedline Technologies, Asia, will highlight Camalot dispensing, Electrovert reflow soldering and MPM stencil printing systems at its booth (3305) during SEMICON China in Shanghai in March.

Camalot XyflexPro HVB dispenser uses a proprietary, patent-pending, conveyorless material handling system and dual dispense heads. Typical performance is three to five times faster than conventional single lane systems. Features DU (dispense unit) pump technology, with positive shut-off auger technology and a continuous flow multi-piston pump with increase flow rates and improved repeatability. 

Available on Electrovert OmniExcel Pb-free capable reflow ovens, the self-cleaning Electrovert Flux Extraction System is said to reduce maintenance intervals and deliver a gain in uptime. Consists of multiple, multi-stage collection units located within the heating sections to continuously scrub process gas for unwanted particulates. Automatically collects flux into easy-to-exchange jars and notifies users when maintenance is required.

Auer Boat print processing is now available on the MPM AccuFlex and the MPM AP Excel systems. Demonstrations will be featured on the AccuFlex stencil printer.

The AccuFlex stencil printer is suited for moderate volume, high-mix printing. Combining accuracy and flexibility in a compact footprint, the printer offers a range of expansion options.  Designed for production of about 8,000 boards per week, with two or more product changeovers per shift. 

The AP Excel printer's throughput, uptime and functionality are reportedly ideal for demanding, high-volume printing applications. Standard minimum base cycle time is 6 sec. using MPM's SpeedMax high-speed package. 

The latest High-Power Target is a transmission target consisting of an interaction layer made of tungsten and a special backing layer that provides improved heat transfer and lower focal spot temperature.

 

Its construction allows users to operate the x-ray tube with higher energies at the highest possible resolution, allowing for increased image contrast. Ideal for inspecting objects with low-contrast structures, or with high absorption structures.

 

As a rule, the thermal stress applied to the target increases with decreasing focal spot size and increasing tube power. Focal spot size, however, is a critical factor in determining geometric magnification and image resolution, while tube power influences the x-ray intensity output.

Ultra-efficient, low-cost RF power amplifiers enable the manufacture of high-performance, low-cost RF power amplifiers in common silicon semiconductors. Architecture enables models of power amplifiers that inherently perform the function of traditional RF transmitters and eliminate traditional transmitter hardware.

Are monolithic (single chip) implementations that can be produced in less expensive, high-volume silicon semiconductor processes. Offered in two families- the vector power amplifier (VPA) and digital power amplifier (DPA). Both reduce transmitter power consumption for many battery-powered wireless products by 50 to 80%.

Currently for applications up to 3GHz RF frequencies.

The 752 series compact, low-maintenance dispense valve reportedly applies accurate, consistent amounts of cyanoacrylate adhesives and other assembly fluids on automated production lines.
 
Pneumatically operated valve has no tubing to leak or O-rings to wear out. Precision diaphragm rated for tens of millions of cycles provides long, trouble-free operation.  A fast, clean cutoff after each shot eliminates dripping, waste and cosmetic damage to parts.
 
The amount of cyanoacrylate dispensed is determined by fluid pressure, flow rate and valve open time. Adjustable stroke control allows the flow rate to be fine-tuned, while valve open time is regulated with a microprocessor-based controller. Valve open time can be adjusted in increments as small as 0.001 sec.
 
Ideal for automated assembly machines, XYZ tables and retrofits on current production lines.
