Salem, NH — Seica, Inc.’s featured systems will include the Pilot V8 Flying Prober, the Firefly Laser Selective Soldering system, and the Compact TK Functional and In- Circuit Test system. Like all of Seica?s solutions, the Compact Line is based on the core software/hardware VIP platform, but is specialized for multi- ple applications. The equipment is aimed at users in the automotive industry, and includes systems dedi- cated to in-circuit test, on-board pro- gramming of digital devices, function- al and end-of-line board testing (EOL), with manual or fully automated UUT loading/downloading. Programs demonstrated will be


implemented in VIVA software and NI Labview/TestStand, which is 100 per- cent compatible with the COMPACT systems’ hardware architecture. The Compact line is fully com-


pliant with lean production guide- lines typical of the WCM standard, widely used in different sectors of today’s global industrial production environments. Compact TK is the smallest con-


figuration of the Functional and In- Circuit systems. Voted best in World Class Manufacturing by a premier Automotive contract manufacturer, the Compact line is recommended for ICT, functional, and on-board pro- gramming applications.


The Firefly Selective Soldering


system is a laser-based technology has been designed to optimize flexi- bility and automation, including solutions for specific requirements, such as an external pre-heating unit. The Firefly is available in three con- figurations: top soldering, bottom sol- dering, as well as top and bottom sol- dering. The laser in the Firefly sys- tem is a clean and versatile technolo- gy. The energy through the laser allows for point to point adjustment of the power needed for soldering. The lack of thermal inertia of the laser, combined with real-time tem- perature readings enables the dynamic creation of the thermal pro-

file. The ability to apply all of the energy in a single point makes this technology applicable in situations where it is not possible to heat the whole board or where there are prob- lems generated by reduced accessi- bility. The user is able to change from lead to lead-free solder by sim- ply changing the spool of solder wire. The clean soldering process elimi-
