Vanguard EMS Selects DEN-ON’s Lead-Free Rework Equipment
FocalSpot, Inc. (San Diego, CA), a provider of inspection and rework/repair solutions and services, recently announced that contract manufacturer Vanguard EMS (Portland, OR) has selected Den-on Instruments, RD-500 for advanced rework applications, including rework of lead-free assemblies.
Designed for both lead-free and standard solder, the system is a vision-based, semi-automated reflow, removal and placement rework station for printed circuit assemblies, surface-mount devices (SMDs) and connectors. The system combines high-powered top and bottom heater configuration with auto-profiling technology to efficiently heat and reflow rework applications—from small personal digital assistants (PDAs) and cell phones to personal computer (PC) motherboards and multi-layered avionics back planes.
Vanguard selected the system based on its efficient heating technology, ease-of-use and price performance. FocalSpot's product manager, Raymond LaFleur, was tasked during the evaluation to demonstrate the performance of the machine on several demanding applications, including lead-free rework.
