Progressive Energy Dynamics fluid delivery technology comes on the MicroJet defluxer and is said to offer maximum impingement energy and fluid flow around and under SMT components. Independently targeted, precision flow jets impact all four sides of circuit card assemblies and SMT components as they travel through the wash. Can clean low standoff BGAs and microBGAs.

Alternate Finger gasket is a variation of the slot mount shielding and electrical contact gasket. Is said to be preferred for applications where a continuous slot is not an ideal option. The beryllium copper fingerstock gasket is manufactured with retention fingers on an alternating pattern. Is available for standard and ultrasoft compression applications.  Is also available in several plating finishes. Can be ordered in a variety of lengths and retention fingers at every third or fifth slot. Free samples are available.

VectorGuard Platinum stencil platform is for wafer-level packaging, direct chip attach, flip chip and BGAs. Is said to be capable of aperture accuracies of  less than 3 μm, and positional tolerances of better than 20 μm at pitches down to 50 μm. Is frameless, and offers simple and automatic tensioning, independent of traditional pneumatic assistance processes.

HV-KIT-ESD Handi-Vac Kit is static-dissipative and uses conductive silicone vacuum cups. Each kit comes with one 1/8" and one 1/4" vacuum cup on bent probes, as well as one 1/8" and one 3/8" vacuum cup on straight probes. Applications include SMT parts, metal parts, plastic parts or any item with a smooth, nonporous surface that the rubber vacuum tweezer tip can seal against. Can be used with any of the company’s rubber vacuum cups ranging in size from 3/32" to 3/4" in diameter.

This line of quick-mount LCD connector assemblies is installation-ready and includes an acrylic display bezel and mask, as well as an environmentally protective and shock-absorbent retainer that holds two conductive Zebra connectors. Reportedly provides a method for mounting LCDs to PC boards without the need for pins or soldering. Six size options are available to accommodate LCDs from 0.54" x 0.94" up to 1.50" x 2.75". Connectors consist of alternating parallel layers of conductive and nonconductive silicone rubber repeating on a 0.18 mm pitch; offer a nominal resistance of 1000Ω, operating temperature from -40° to 95°C, with a relative humidity range from zero to 100%.

The 781RC MicroMark Recirculating Spray System reportedly eliminates maintenance and downtime encountered with felt pads that become contaminated with debris – or spray valves that clog with heavy pigments – by using a recirculating pump to keep pigments in suspension, and using a short burst of air after each cycle to clear the nozzle of residue. Marking inks and paints are said to perform exactly as intended. Is reliable and easy to service.

ACE Releases High-speed Inline Work Cell The ACE automated, high-speed in-line work cell runs higher volumes of products requiring secondary selective soldering. Designed for flexibility for high-mix environments, the configurable line reportedly offers a higher degree of productivity expected from an automated flowline. Consists of a loading station (assembly area); a Kiss 104F automated selective fluxing station (spray flux, drop-jet or dual); a KPHIL-2 inline top and bottom-side pre-heating station, and a Kiss-104 inline selective soldering station. Kiss 104 also features Automated Optical Alignment system, including a high-quality camera and machine vision system to align each assembly to be soldered using preprogrammed fiducial points on the board.

A series of new components include:

*Two new linear bushing designs – Pillow block-type linear bushings come with clamp levers (Part No: LHBBC16), and MX type self-lubricating linear bushings (Part No: LHBB-MX16).
*Magnetic Transmission Drive components, suited to applications in which the non-contacting components result in ultra-low dust generation. 
*Expanded line of LX Single-Axis Actuators with new features such as ballscrew lead options and low dust raise grease. Now come in 1000 possible configurations, up from 200 in the original series.

Most components are configurable, with downloadable CAD files.

The ECO-300 is a small-footprint Pb-free wave solder machine with a 220-lb. titanium solder pot. Reportedly has half the customary solder startup costs of comparable large-pot machines; consumes 40% less energy than single-wave systems. Is just over 8 ft. long. Features include a transducer-controlled pump motor, an automatically re-circulating adjustable titanium finger conveyor for board widths to 11.8", along with a 32" preheat zone with stainless steel sheath-type IR heaters.

F377 SnPb solder paste is said to have wide print and reflow process windows, and has low sensitivity to humidity. Is no-clean, and voiding exceeds IPC Class 3 in typical applications. Has a reported 8-hr. stencil life.
 
F555 Water Wash solder paste, for thick-film hybrids, incorporates activators said to be compatible with the glass, resulting in superior adhesion. Comes in Sn62 and Sn63 alloys.
