Handbook soldering slowing your manufacturing line? This compact system delivers quicker, repeatable joints and it may well scale along with your manufacturing.
Many electronics producers nonetheless rely on handbook piston soldering, a course of that’s sluggish, inconsistent, and troublesome to scale. High quality typically varies from operator to operator, new product setups take time, and small errors in movement or timing can result in defects. As product complexity will increase, these challenges flip into manufacturing bottlenecks, particularly for small and mid-sized companies that may’t afford giant automation groups.
The A number of Course of Changer (MPC) soldering system is constructed to take away these bottlenecks. It automates piston soldering utilizing a collaborative robotic, turning a skill-dependent process right into a steady, repeatable course of. The complete workflow is coordinated by means of the EUTECT Machine Interface (EMI), which manages all robotic and axis actions and lets operators outline soldering paths, speeds, dwell occasions, and job knowledge with out superior programming abilities.
To make sure constant solder joints, the soldering iron and wire feed sourced from JBC or Hakko are mounted straight on the robotic arm so the system works as one built-in machine. This reduces variation and maintains uniform outcomes throughout lengthy manufacturing runs.
The setup additionally helps totally different manufacturing environments. It features a rotary indexing desk for handbook loading, a security cell, and an automated tip holder for cleansing and tip adjustments. For greater volumes or automated strains, the indexing desk might be changed with a conveyor to allow inline operation and automatic loading/unloading.
“We see the MPC automation platform as a versatile resolution that may be outfitted with totally different soldering processes for various AIT purposes, relying on buyer necessities,” says Fehrenbach, Managing Director of Eutect GmbH.
“On the commerce truthful, we might be showcasing the fundamental system, which might be custom-made to go well with customer-specific processes. Nonetheless, these customizations are carried out individually and are a part of our particular providers,” explains Fehrenbach.
