SEHO's PowerSelective features a modular design, ensuring the highest flexibility. The system offers SEHO's unique multi-nozzle technology and can be customized to meet specific production requirements. The SEHO multi-nozzle technology ensures short cycle times as low as 25 seconds per panel or carrier. With tool change on-the-fly, customers can run high-mix production without losing changeover time.
For maximum flexibility, the system features high-precision mini-wave processes that are completely independent from the fluxing and preheat process to ensure high-volume production. The award-winning real-time fluxer control and the very comfortable offline teach programs are only a few of the unique features that SEHO’s PowerSelective offers.
Depending on the application, the PowerSelective may be equipped with an inline conveyor for integration into a fully automated production line or with a batch conveyor module for standalone operation. The system is capable of handling multiple boards with parallel processes. Both bare boards as well as assemblies in carriers may be processed with the PowerSelective.
Also on display at the show, the SelectiveLine soldering module offers uncompromisingly high soldering quality. Featuring a high-precision mini-wave process, the SelectiveLine is ideally suited for a high product mix, offering maximum flexibility, particularly for small- and medium-sized production volumes. The system features a precise axis system for exact positioning of various workstations and is capable of handling either bare boards or assemblies in carriers up to 500 x 500 mm.
The SelectiveLine machine concept is designed for inline operation and may be upgraded individually to reduce cycle times remarkably if production volumes should increase. This also makes it possible to adapt the degree of automation in production to current requirements. The SelectiveLine concept covers three basic modules: the SelectiveLine soldering module, a separate fluxing module and a preheat module. These modules may be arranged individually or as a complete production line. All modules are controlled through one central SPC control unit that is featured with a powerful CAN bus system.
With SEHO’s PowerWave, complex SMD boards are as reliably soldered as conventional assemblies as a result of up-to-date solder nozzle geometries and a flexible preheat area. The preheat conveyor speed is independent of the solder wave conveyor speed, separating the preheat profile from the contact time in the wave. The preheat time is independent from the machine length, giving the machine a much smaller footprint than other machines on the market
Depending on the production requirements, SEHO's PowerWave may be equipped with a chain/finger conveyor system or with a solder frame conveyor for processing pallets. The heart of the machine ―the soldering area ― is designed with a degree of flexibility that is capable of performing all soldering operations.
As always, all soldering systems from SEHO are fully lead-free capable.
