April, 2012 Strunk Precision Welder Joins PV Wires
Deep River, CT — Strunk Special Welding Systems use resistance welding to splice one or more wires and to join one or more wires to other components. The technology welds both solid and stranded wire, from 0.01mm to 150mm2, at rates up to
800 parts per minute in special cam- driven systems for automotive, med- ical and solar applications. The joints for solar applications
use wire diameters of 2mm2 to 10mm2, made by resistance welding, have near-zero electrical resistance
and are highly resistant to both shear and peel forces. Parts joined by resistance weld-
ing also exhibit no aging of the connec- tion. This has a direct impact on the
junction boxes; strings to junction boxes and other strings; and diodes to the lead frames inside the junction boxes. The welders are available as manual benchtop units and in other

Manncorp Unveils Split-Vision Rework Station
Willow Grove, PA —A rework station with higher-resolution split-vision for easier and more accurate align- ment has been introduced by Manncorp. The lead-free system BR750, also contains ultra-precise processing controls to meet the chal- lenge of removal and placement of BGAs, CSPs, QFNs, PoPs and other subminiature surface mount devices. A key to the system’s enhanced
performance is its innovative heat- ing, including independent and fully programmable top and bottom hot air, plus rapid on/off IR under- heaters. The latter eliminates ther- mal tension that can damage boards or components adjacent to those being processed. With eight different set points, exact thermal conditions
can be produced for profiles contain- ing heating rate, target temperature, dwell time and cooling. The profiles are shown in real time on a conven- ient LCD display. After entering their size, SMDs
are automatically pre-aligned and picked up from the component nest at their exact centers. An upward- looking camera then verifies posi- tioning at all four corners of each device, while split-vision optics and electronic zoom adjustment of up to 22X does the fine tuning. This proce- dure is said to be extremely efficient
