Micro-Line Digital Dispensing Head consists of a high-speed liquid metering valve and a precision nozzle.
 
Applies conformal coatings in precise lines or dots down to 1 mm with the liquid flow rate set electronically with the Prism software.  The coating is applied at a distance from 5 to 15 mm between the nozzle tip and the substrate.  The technology is said to be more effective than conventional needle dispensing.

The Semiconductor Feeding Solutions Group of Hover-Davis will highlight the latest addition of its Direct Die Feeding product line ¾ the DDf Ultra.
 
Is capable of feeding a range of bare die and flip chips with high throughput, and can be mounted on almost every placement machine.
 
Performance is optimized around the handling of small flip chips. Can feed die down to 0.5 mm sq. with a throughput exceeding 6,000 die/hr. ¾ with smaller die sizes and higher throughputs planned.
 
Roland Heitmann, director of the Semiconductor Feeding Solutions Group, said, “We have seen a rapid expansion in the number of applications requiring volume assembly of die below 1 mm sq., driven by RFID and LED technologies. These potential customers require very low assembly costs and have very high volumes. By combining our DDf Ultra with an SMT chip shooter, we can create a “die shooter” or “flip chip shooter,” which is essentially new class of die assembly solution.”

Ultrasonic stencil cleaners require stencils to be immersed vertically into tall tanks from above the machine. Large stencils are placed in heavy metal baskets and manually lifted, causing difficulty and potential injury to the operator. Step platforms used to reduce lifting height occupy valuable floor space and present potential hazard to foot traffic.
 
ErgoSonic Stencil Cleaner combines the cleaning efficiency of ultrasonics with the convenience and ease of front-loading. Unconventional lifting, awkward loading platforms and heavy stencil baskets are eliminated.
