Scienscope to Display Three New Systems at IPC APEX EXPO 2019
January 28, 2019 | Scienscope InternationalEstimated reading time: 2 minutes
Scienscope International will display three new systems in booth #441 at the 2019 IPC APEX EXPO, scheduled to take place January 29-31, 2019 at the San Diego Convention Center. To further establish the company as the leader in automated X-ray component counting, Scienscope will debut the AXC-800 II component counter that features automatic internal bar code scanning to eliminate the use of an external bar code reader.
Also on display will be two systems that take a novel approach to the realities of component counting and inventory management – the AXC-800 7" and the automated AXI-5100 7". The systems specifically address the reality that 7" reels are by far the dominant category of SMT inventory, and are designed to address that fact by being dedicated to what is counted most often – 7" reels. The new systems will help define the component counting category by offering the lowest cost available for companies to begin accurate component counting.
“System automation and the reduction of manual steps for operators are key goals as we look towards the factories of the future,” stated Don Jeka, National Sales and Marketing Manager. “Scienscope has aligned our product development to continue to focus on these goals. We are proud of our steps forward in this area, and we look forward to attendees at the IPC APEX EXPO seeing the new AXC-800 II and our AXI-5100C II series on display in booth 441, both offering the highest levels of automation available in their market segment. With the addition of our 7" series systems, Scienscope offers the best value to price point component counting available in the industry. Inventory control and management, which includes accurate component counting, are absolutely critical elements as we look towards the modernization of material handling in our industry.”
Scienscope also will have its well-established line of microscopes, video measurement and metrology systems on display in the booth at the 2019 IPC APEX EXPO.
