October 9, 2018 | Fuji America CorporationEstimated reading time: 2 minutes
Fuji America Corporation along with several of our smart factory partner companies including: FlexLink, Koh Young, Heller and Saki America; will be exhibiting at the SMTA International Trade Show, October 16-17, at the Donald E. Stephens Convention Center, Rosemont, Illinois, (booth #407). Together, the five companies will be demonstrating state-of-the-art multi-mix/multi-volume SMT placement technologies.
Fuji will showcase the AIMEXIII, the latest addition to our innovative AIMEX series. The AIMEXIII is available in single and dual gantry configurations and accommodates up to (130) 8mm smart feeders that can be Hot-Swapped for uninterrupted operation. Stick, strip tape and tray feeding are also supported.
The Fuji DynaHead, featuring Dynamic Tool Exchange, enables true all-in-one placement capabilities to place components ranging from 01005 thru 74mm square and up to one inch tall in addition to connectors up to 32mm x 180mm. Standard nozzles, specialty nozzles and mechanical chucks are also supported. The Odd Form head combined with the Tray Unit LT allows parts up to 1.5” to be placed.
Utilizing the latest advances in vision systems, linear drive technology and the new H24G placement head, the AIMEXIII can place small components with an accuracy of 25um and a rated speed of 35,000 components per hour per gantry (37,000 CPH at 38um accuracy) and can accommodates panels as small as 2” x 2” and as large as 28”x 30.4”, using Automatic Rail Adjustment and Auto Back-up Pin Support.
For High Mix, NPI and prototyping applications, The AIMEXIII offers ultra-fast changeover using gang feeder replacement, electronic feeder verification, GUI program verification and a machine based NPI component teaching tool allowing you to spend your valuable production time building product rather than editing programs.
The AIMEXIII combines Fuji’s 35+ years of innovation with an installed base of more than 85,000 machines worldwide.

Knocking Down the Bone Pile: Revamp Your Components with BGA Reballing
10/14/2025 | Nash Bell -- Column: Knocking Down the Bone PileBall grid array (BGA) components evolved from pin grid array (PGA) devices, carrying over many of the same electrical benefits while introducing a more compact and efficient interconnect format. Instead of discrete leads, BGAs rely on solder balls on the underside of the package to connect to the PCB. In some advanced designs, solder balls are on both the PCB and the BGA package. In stacked configurations, such as package-on-package (PoP), these solder balls also interconnect multiple packages, enabling higher functionality in a smaller footprint.
