General


About

The twin-table gantry soldering machine has two separate work areas that can operate independently or simultaneously. This allows for greater flexibility and efficiency in the soldering process, as one table can be loaded with materials while the other is being soldered. Additionally, twin-table gantry soldering machines can often be configured to have different tooling or processes on each table, further increasing their versatility.

Features

Twin tables. Equipped with 4-axis/3-axis gantry robot. User-friendly teaching program specially designed for soldering.
Dedicated for laser soldering method. Numerous options including: Automated Flux Dispenser,
AOI, Vision system for fiducial correction, traceability, auto-program selection. image processing, thermometer, and
QR scanner. Add additional axes.

Laser Soldering Process

Laser soldering offers several benefits, including rapid soldering, minimal heat dispersion, and the ability to work with delicate components.
Laser soldering ensures high-quality connections, reduces the risk of damage to sensitive electronic parts, and enhances overall manufacturing efficiency. It's the go-to solution for achieving top-notch soldering results in modern electronics assembly.

Advantages of Laser Soldering

Contact vs Non-contact


Contact

contact-soldering-drawing

Possible Stress

Physical contact to the substrate
Flux residue (carbide)

Dead Space

It is necessary to secure space for the tip and solder wire feed.

 

Solder Amount

There is a certain amount of solder that is brought to the wet surface of the tip.

FAQs

Laser Soldering (Desktop and Inline Apps)


Q: What are the most common reasons to select laser soldering technologies?
A: Micro Soldering (0.02mm spot), non-contact (allows for reflow only), no iron tip consumables, automatic spot size change.

Q: Is laser soldering faster than contact soldering?
A: Laser soldering can be slightly faster because it eliminates some mechanical movement or when used only to reflow.

Q: Does Japan Unix maintain FDA safety approval to sell laser machines in the US?
A: Absolutely

Q: How are the laser positions programmed?
A: Japan Unix was the first company to develop laser soldering more than a decade ago with the patented direct line-of-sight teaching camera that allows you to look directly through the laser beam. This makes teaching easy and avoid inaccuratie due to angle distortion.

Q: Does Japan Unix offer pyrometer modulated power controls (power cruse control)?
A: Yes, Japan Unix is the leader in direct temperature measured laser control.
