Trident eSPC software is available on all PC-equipped Trident defluxing systems. Permits scanning (or manually entering) individual assembly barcodes as they are loaded. All process parameters are stored and can be viewed either on-screen or via a wireless printer. All relevant process data are stored and associated with specific assembly serial numbers. Automatically captures assembly serial number; date/time of batch (start and completion); programmed wash solution temperature; actual wash solution temperature; maximum quantity of programmed rinse cycles; actual quantity of rinse cycles; programmed cleanliness value; actual cleanliness value; pass/fail cleanliness status; programmed drying time; actual drying time; programmed drying temperature; actual drying temperature; operator name; operator notes, and equipment notifications (if any). Advanced search capability for specific assemblies that have been cleaned and tested.

Stamped Circuit Board thermal management draws heat away from beneath the chip quickly. Combines structured layers of metal and plastic for use in substrate assemblies. Is based on a reel-to-reel concept and offers possibilities to automate production. Possible solutions: with versatile stamping, materials can be inflected and stamped; the resulting shape stabilizes the substrate and fixates the lenses; open choice of many different materials and thicknesses; simpler operation, and quicker separation.
