November 11, 2015 | Juki Automation Systems (JAS), Inc.Estimated reading time: 2 minutes
Juki Automation Systems (JAS), Inc., a world-leading provider of automated assembly products and systems and part of Juki Automation Systems Corporation, together with Storage Solutions, a division of ESSEGI SYSTEM SERVICE s.r.l., announce that the companies were awarded a joint 2015 Editor’s Choice Award from Global SMT & Packaging magazine for the new ISM UltraFlex 3600. The award was presented to the companies during a Tuesday, Nov. 10, 2015 ceremony that took place at the Messe München exhibition center in Munich, Germany during Productronica. The ISM UltraFlex 3600 adds a tier on top of the current lineup offered by Storage Solutions and Juki.
The ISM UltraFlex 3600 builds on the strengths of its ACS/ISM 2000 predecessor, with even higher speed/throughput, powerful software that is constantly improved with new features; and an intuitive interface, now fully on touchscreen devices. The new machine and case designs enable the UltraFlex 3600 to store a maximum number of 3600 7"-8mm reels, but can accept any mix of reel sizes. During idle time, the machine will automatically sort cases to optimize the distribution of reels of different formats, always providing the maximum possible storage capacity.
The UltraFlex 3600 is able to dynamically adjust the internal subdivision of space to accommodate changing mixes of reel heights from 8 up to 88mm, and diameters from 7 to 15". The new case designs allow storage of JEDEC trays on ANY case format (both 7 and 15" wide).
The system can communicate with all major brands of SMT placement systems and software updates are available at no additional cost. The optional dehumidification kit can keep the internal relative humidity below the five percent level during all standard operations.
Premiering in 2005, the Global Technology Awards program is an annual celebration of product excellence in electronics surface mount assembly. Premier products based on the finest examples of creative advancement in technology are chosen by a distinguished panel of industry experts.

Knocking Down the Bone Pile: Gold Mitigation for Class 2 Electronics
05/07/2025 | Nash Bell -- Column: Knocking Down the Bone PileIn electronic assemblies, the integrity of connections between components is paramount for ensuring reliability and performance. Gold embrittlement and dissolution are two critical phenomena that can compromise this integrity. Gold embrittlement occurs when gold diffuses into solder joints or alloys, resulting in mechanical brittleness and an increased susceptibility to cracking. Conversely, gold dissolution involves the melting away of gold into solder or metal matrices, potentially altering the electrical and mechanical properties of the joint.
