Dual solder nozzle is for the selective soldering process. Two different size solder nozzles operate in tandem; a circuit board with different size components can be processed in one pass. Solder nozzles are 3mm or 6mm and 12mm or 18mm. Nozzles operate independently within a single soldering program.  Each nozzle is powered by its own programmable pump; solder volume and wave height can be set for a particular nozzle or printed circuit board assembly.

Spectrum S-820-C stainless steel dispensing system is certified for Class 100 cleanroom use. Can be used in applications sensitive to contamination by submicron-sized particles, such as wafer-level packaging, or for dispensing a controlled amount of adhesive in precision cleanroom manufacturing operations. Provides dispensing process capability and is reportedly ideal for labs, new product development, and batch production. Has stainless steel enclosure and enclosed keyboard. Options include a laser height sensor and a dual-action dispensing head; can be used to increase UPH. Mass flow calibration uses weight-controlled dispensing and automatic calibration. Calibrated process jetting uses weight control, and jet-on-the-fly is a software feature that dispenses lines of dots without stopping.

KISS-105 is capable of inline selective soldering of printed circuit boards up to 28" x 36". Reportedly can handle the size and weight of large backplanes and other oversized products. When equipped with a topside preheater, it can achieve Class 3 solder joints on printed circuit boards with a thickness of up to 0.354". Large boards are processed in a 1" border frame that supports, locates and flattens the board. Frame mounted boards are conveyed into the system in a SMEMA manner where they are optically aligned, located and camped into position. After flux application, preheating elevates the topside board temperature to a set temperature and maintains the temperature throughout the soldering cycle. PCB remains stationary. Is equipped with “Super Quick” motion and closed-loop positioning feedback with linear encoders. Has offline programming software. Features include program-controlled conveyor width adjustment, positive PCB locating and flattening, fiducial alignment and skew correction.
