At the recently held SMTA International exhibition, Juki Automation Systems showcased the ISM UltraFlex 3600 intelligent storage system that provides automatic kitting for the next run on placement machines, as well as the CUBE.460, RX-6R/RX-6B and GL screen printer. The company also demonstrated its new X-ray platform for the first time.
ISM UltraFlex 3600 storage system.
Able to communicate across a wide variety of vendor platforms and capable of providing up to 54 reels for production simultaneously, the ISM UltraFlex 3600 can read low parts, warning to output the required reel in advance. It also has the capability to grow reels up to 88 mm in height.
CUBE.460 selective solder system.
The CUBE.460 selective solder system, featuring dual-nozzle mini-wave soldering, features a batch platform offering excellent flexibility for through-hole applications. It can be configured with a single nozzle or dual nozzle for increased flexibility. The system comes equipped with many standard features that include heated nitrogen at the soldering nozzle, 0° and 7° soldering to accommodate various types of nozzles, and an exchangeable pot system to support both leaded and unleaded alloys.
The new RX-6R/RX-6B high-speed, compact modular mounter is built on the same platform as the proven, reliable RX-6. The new, compact system has a width of just 1,25 m and a new head design that results in increased placement speed over the previous model. Replaceable heads allow the user to configure a production line best suited to current requirements.
RX-6R modular mopunter.
The GL fully automatic screen printer enables users to achieve 01005 (0402 metric) printing utilising a patented mathematical calculating algorithm to ensure the machine’s high-accuracy print alignment. Additionally, the system features a patented PCB flexible auto clamp (FAC) system and stencil position memory (SPM) function for easy and quick changeover.
