August, 2014 Hitachi Sigma Offers Lower Price Tag


Dallas, TX — Electronics manufac- turers and PCB assemblers who want the precision and accuracy of Hitachi's SIGMA Series Modular Mounters, but don't need all that ca- pacity just yet, can get started with the new SIGMA G5JS, a single-beam version of the recently introduced


SIGMA G5S. The SIGMA G5JS implements


the company's "Overdrive technolo- gy" for full utilization of both front and rear resources using a single placement head. The head can be ei- ther high-speed (up to 44mm square single shot recognition) or the multi-


function head, which is capable of handling a variety of both SMT and through-hole components. The cus- tomer can use this basically as an SMT platform, including three different tray feeders to choose from; or it can be config- ured as a work cell using the multifunction head, stack stick feeders, or radial and axial lead feeders. According to the company,

the new SIGMA G5JS provides the option of getting into Hi- tachi technology at a reduced price, while at the same time being compatible in terms of feeders, nozzles, feeder carts, programing, and just about everything else, with the com- pany's high-speed. Starting out with the G5JS, users can seam- lessly scale up their production by in- tegrating the high speed equipment into their production line. The high- speed head is rated at 37,500 CPH and the multi-function head 7,000 to


9,000 CPH for chip components, ex- cluding PCB transition time of ap- proximately 2 seconds.


G5JS permits gradual upgrading as the need arises.

of +150°C, and small dimensions of 2 x 6 x 0.75mm further opens the range of use for these compact, pre- cision position sensors. The use of pole wheels allow


for highly accurate angular measure- ments on the shaft circumference, easily achieving resolutions better than 0.001° (19-bit). The sensors' small wall thick-

position detection is possible with the non-contact, anisotropic magneto-re- sistive measurement principle of the sensors. Because the KMXP sensors de-


tect a magnetic field gradient, they are virtually insensitive to homoge- neous stray fields and vibrations. This contributes to the high accuracy measurement by allowing for in- creased resolution at high speeds — up to several meters per second. The output of the new sensors is


sine/cosine with 10mV/V. In combina- tion with an interpolator device and magnetic scales, measurement ranges from µm to km are possible with high precision. Extended operating tem- perature range is –40 to +150°C. Current models of the linear po-
