At the heart of the OK International booth will be the highly flexible MFR Series of Multi-Function Rework Systems. Exclusively powered by the company's SmartHeat� Technology, the MFR Series' responsive and repeatable heating capabilities make it ideal for a wide range of assembly challenges. The economical and operator friendly MFR-1100 Series is the only single output system to utilize both a soldering cartridge and tip. Appearing alongside it at Nepcon Shanghai, the MFR-2200 Series features a dual output capability to allow the use of one or two hand-pieces simultaneously. The MFR-1100 and MFR-2200 can be used together to create a tri-output system offering extreme flexibility for increased productivity across an even wider range of applications.
The OK International team will be using the show to launch its brand new MRS-1000 Modular Rework System, a powerful, high accuracy benchtop solution. Comprised of a handheld convection tool with a wide array of nozzles, preheater, adjustable tool holder with board holder, and light magnifier, the manually-assisted rework system is an ideal choice for the removal of delicate SMT components and other processes requiring increased control. With standard features including programmability, a digital display, program storage of up to 50 profiles and adjustability, the system is extremely versatile to boost ongoing productivity.
The OK International booth will also showcase the Metcal MX-5000 Soldering, Desoldering and Rework System, a high performance package for complex assembly challenges. Prioritizing high throughput and precision control, the easy-to-use MX-5000 combines increased power with SmartHeat� Technology to eliminate overshoot potential and maintain high productivity soldering and rework. Also incorporating a built-in digital power indication display, the MX-5000 enables continuous operator feedback for making consistent, quality solder joints.
Dispensing will also be a major focus of the OK International booth, featuring the high performance DX-250 and DX-350 Digital Dispenser/Controllers. The DX-250 is an easy-to-use micro-air dispensing system, uniting affordability with accuracy and repeatability. Ideal for general dispensing challenges, the DX-250 enables diverse applications, ranging from the precision deposition of surface mount solder paste and adhesive, to semiconductor under-fill. The DX-350 is a microprocessor-driven, fully digital dispenser ensuring highly repeatable and precise fluid volume. Designed to dispense a wide range of fluid viscosities, the DX-350 also expertly controls variation in pneumatic dispense valves. The OK International dispensing display will be further enhanced by a comprehensive range of consumable items.
Also being demonstrated live at the booth is the APR-5000-XLS Array Package Rework System. Featuring precision heater control software, this unique technology manages the narrow lead-free process window without reaching excessive peak temperatures that damage components, connectors, other solder joints and the PCB substrate. Incorporating a dual convection bottom-side heater that enables faster rework while delivering precision temperature control, the APR-5000 will be a popular addition to OK International's Nepcon Shanghai booth.
Featuring all this and more, visit OK International Booth #1D06 at Nepcon Shanghai to see these technologies in action.
