MY100DX pick-and-place machine assembles components on high-mix boards at up to a reported 34,000 cph.

MY100SX handles batches or continuous production up to 21,500 cph.

MY100LX is for high mix operations.

Each now has higher-count feeders without no change in machine footprint. Work with Agilis intelligent feeders.

FlexSolder W510 is a mini-wave that handles boards up to 510 x 510 mm. Flexible design permits machine to be assembled anywhere; permits complete option upgrades in the field. Has the ability to have multiple mini-wave nozzles soldering simultaneously or running separately using two different size nozzles. A nozzle as small as 1.8 mm can be used for tight areas on densely populated boards, and a larger nozzle for making single passes on large connectors.

Dual Lane Vision X Series convection soldering system enables simultaneous lead- and Pb-free reflow in a single machine. Comes with two conveyor lanes that can be operated asynchronously at different speeds and asymmetrically with different lane widths. Can be loaded with diverse PCBs printed with different solder pastes, while a flexible heating system enables the selection of ideal reflow profiles for the separate products. Homogenous, non-separated heating and cooling zones across the entire width of the conveyor are said to increase operating convenience and reduce investment cost. Comes with air or nitrogen atmosphere and integrated residue management system.
