Solderstar WaveShuttle O₂ verification tool. Builds on the original WaveShuttle by adding real-time oxygen measurement to wave soldering process control. Captures seven parameters in a pass, including temperature profile, wave contact, wave height, line speed, inclination angle, vibration and oxygen concentration. Features titanium contact sensors for wave height and line speed measurement, plus a three-axis vibration sensor that detects mechanical instability caused by worn parts or misaligned tooling. Inclination sensors track PCB entry and exit angles at the wave. ESD composite and titanium construction, with custom production sizes available. Integrates with SLX datalogger to separate machine-level variation from PCB-specific issues.

Hirose DF22 Series of power connectors now comes with DF22B branch adapter, designed to simplify wiring and reduce cabling and installation time. Enables branch wiring and supports up to 30A per contact at 1000V AC/DC with a four-point contact design and highly conductive materials. Offers multiple configurations, straight, right-angle, and in-line wire-to-board, with three housing types featuring different guide keys and color variations to prevent mis-mating in systems using multiple connectors. For harsh environments, a straight header variant supports potting up to 10mm. Is for compact, high-current branching applications such as semiconductor equipment, industrial robots, conveyors, mounting machines and service robots.
