Metcal is pleased to announce that it will highlight the MX-5200 Soldering, Desoldering and Rework Series at the SMTA Capital Expo & Tech Forum, scheduled to take place Tuesday, September 9, 2014 at the John Hopkins University/Applied Physics Lab in Laurel, MD. The MX-5200 Series offers the same increased productivity and process control as the MX-5000 Series with dual-simultaneous ports.
The MX-5200 features a dual-simultaneous use option, meaning that two hand-pieces can work from one power supply at the same time. The dynamic option enables the two hand-pieces to share 80 watts output power based on demand, adding even more application flexibility and speed. Four different hand-pieces and a comprehensive range of soldering and rework cartridges support the MX-5200 Series simultaneous dual operation. These include the Metcal Advanced™ Hand-Piece for SMD rework, a Metcal Ultra-Fine™ Hand-Piece for fine access, a Precision Tweezer capable of removing a range of components from 0201 chips to 28mm SOICs, and a Desoldering Gun for safely removing through-hole components.
Additionally, Metcal offers a full line of solder fume extractors and convection rework systems. Metcal’s handheld convection tools offer the perfect solution for any hot air rework needs. These systems are low cost, versatile and easy-to-use for all SMT soldering and removal.
Since 1982, Metcal has been a recognized worldwide leader in the electronics assembly marketplace. As part of OK International, Metcal’s industry-leading position addressing advanced technology in conduction soldering and rework/repair, has and will continue to broaden to a full electronics bench tool single-source solution.
