SMT Perspectives & Prospects: What I Hope the Next Generation Will Carry Forward
Learning With Leo: Observations from IPC Builds in Paris
Ascentech, LLC will exhibit and demonstrate new test and process optimization instruments and solutions at the upcoming SMTA International Conference and Exhibition in Rosemont, IL, Sep. 27 - Oct. 1, 2015. Ascentech will exhibit these new products in booth #219.
Products will include the Solder Saver Solder/Dross separation tool, award-winning GENSONIC Ultra-Sonic Stencil Cleaner, the Optilia High Definition Camera Inspection System, the Optilia BGA Inspection scope, and more. Ascentech, LLC is the North American distributor for visual Inspection Instrument manufacturer Optilia Instruments AB, as well as GEN3 Systems Ltd.
Ascentech will also provide the Optilia HD camera system and GENSONIC Stencil Cleaner to this year's SMTAI Special Feature area, supported by SMTA & NPL. This learning area will include live printing ultra-fine pitch deposits, 0201 and 01005 devices, inspection and measurement of different combinations of materials, plus some of the key in-process inspection steps to make a process perform correctly. It will also include AOI inspection of printed board assemblies for open joints, lifted leads, partial lifting of passives and other less common defects.
Optilia offers obstruction‐free, fatigue‐free High‐definition benchtop inspection for PCB assembly, and real‐time BGA inspection solutions.
The GENSONIC is a manually-operated, ultrasonic transducer unit for cleaning stencils used in printing solder pastes and adhesives. It can be used either directly on the printer or at a separate cleaning station.
The Solder Saver is a hand held, compact system for separating Dross from good solder. The unit easily reduces hardened dross material to oxide powder making it possible to remove the dross oxide waste from the solder pot, leaving valuable solder in the pot.
