Page 91 ACE: Selective Stamp Soldering
Spokane Valley, WA — Selective Stamp Soldering offers potentially higher throughput than point-to-point selective soldering with a single noz- zle, but doesn’t require expensive mod-
approach uses a conventional selective soldering machine fitted with a special custom stamp soldering nozzle with several apertures that, in a panelized PCB scenario, indexes around from board to board and stamp solders that small pattern on each PCB. It’s a much smaller fixture than the one that is needed to mass solder a large board in the image that people usually associate with stamp soldering; yet at the same time it’s a lot faster than a typical single nozzle selective solder- ing routine that solders each point sequentially. The advantage of this nozzle, is that it processes every board in the

saves a tremendous amount of pro- cessing time while actually extend- ing or expanding the flexibility of the conventional selective soldering machine, According to the company, this
Finetech: Proven Rework
ALPHA® Technology
Tempe, AZ — Finetech’s rework sys- tem, the Fineplacer© core, offers proven rework technology for a wide spectrum of SMT components, rang- ing in size from 0201 to 70 x 70mm BGAs, and handling PCBs up to 310 x 400mm. The semi-automated

panel in exactly the same fashion vs. the “mass” technique which strikes all solder joints at once. The “selective stamp nozzle” is
somewhere between the mass solder dip machine, which is very expensive and highly dedicated, and a conven- tional selective soldering machine which is flexible and non-dedicated. Thus the product is actually a hybrid, with the only dedicated part being a small custom multi-port nozzle. In order to maintain uniformity
of pressure and flow in all of the apertures when there are varied aperture sizes, threaded set screws are installed for each aperture so
that the flow can be restricted or con- stricted in order to achieve balance. As an example, a small pattern involving a connector and three other devices might take up to 40 seconds when selectively soldered sequential- ly. Using a custom stamp nozzle, that time can be reduced to 6 to 7 seconds, and in a production line, the time
savings are cumulative. Contact: ACE Production

design includes force measurement with automatic component lift-off and placement. A real time process observation camera provides the ability to view the reflow process at almost any angle. The unit’s core represents a
compact, yet versatile hot-gas rework system with a level of professional- ism that exceeds its attractive price. The system integrates the com-
plete rework cycle into an efficient design without diminishing function-
ality.The unit handles de-soldering, site dressing/solder removal, paste print, re-balling and component replacement in one integrated plat- form. The system is driven by sophis- ticated integrated thermal manage- ment and the new QuickStart Profile Library.

ASPEN Identifies Low Temp Processing Value
ASPEN is an interactive Fitness for Use assessment tool that will help you determine if LowTemp processing is a good fit for your current process.
It will:
• Navigate through seven areas of interest relevant to low-temperature SMT processing of electronic assemblies
• Capture the key technical information appropriate to your process and create a customized report based on your input that can be automatically emailed to you
• Quantify the areas of value creation your company could expect by switching to low-temp processing
