As expected, 2011 was a record breaking year for selective solder sales at JUKI. 2012 looks to be even better and is off to a great start. Now in the 7th year of selling selective solder equipment, JUKI has found It's position in the market as the "Machine of Quality and flexibility".
Staying ahead of the game with both quality, and flexibility is our main objective. In 2011 we introduced the very innovative FSW620 inline selective solder system with a swappable 18" full wave system.
Based on a similar axis system, in early 2012 we will introduce our newest machine with 2 solder pots built into the machine for fast change-over between alloys. Both pots will always be calibrated and "ready to go".
If change over is often, each pot can always be hot. If change over is not so often, one pot can be heating while the other is in production and when ready, it's a matter of selecting a button in the software to make the change over. This has minimal interruption to production compared to 3 or 4 hours with manual change over pots.
The new dual pot system in addition to the already existing dual nozzle, will surely add to what I believe is by far the most flexible system in the market and it is all backed buy the most qualified service and support in the industry, and the JUKI name.
