Seho Systems GmbH, a manufacturer of complete solutions for soldering processes and automated production lines, will exhibit at productronica. They will showcase innovative features for its product range. The new functions are designed to bring process reliability to a higher level and further improve production sequences in electronic manufacturing.
After the successful introduction of the preheat option for wave soldering systems using pulsar emitters that allow cost-efficient production from a lot size of one up to large series, the soldering area has been further optimized.
An automatic nozzle height adjustment system has been developed for the MWS 2300 wave soldering system that allows the optimal distance between a PCB and the nozzles. The system operates independently from the carrier design, without negative influence on cycle time. The first automatic wave height measurement system will also be introduced, which will be integrated in the soldering area of the MWS 2300. Based on the measuring results, the wave height is automatically regulated within adjustable tolerances. The system ensures the same height across the wave width at all times.
Seho will show for the first time, the THT AOI system PowerVision in a configuration designed for in-line use with wave soldering systems. It can be configured depending on the requirements. In Munich, the system will be installed in front of the MWS 2300 and will be equipped with an automatic placement control at assembly belt level. At the return conveyor level, an automatic solder joint inspection unit will be integrated to test soldered assemblies for typical defects, such as insufficient solder joints. Both systems are independent from each other and are integrated into the same module to save space.
When it comes to the increased requirements for the production of LED technology, 5G antennas and other products, an innovation for the SelectLine selective soldering system provides the solution. This feature allows processing of long assemblies while they are passing through the system with automatically optimized cycle time.
With the aim to make the production process more efficient, the range of automation solutions of the Streamline product line has been extended. This ranges from board handling with conveyor systems, paternoster and buffer stations, turn and lift stations, to transfer stations and ergonomically designed work places.
