VJ Electronix, Inc., a leader in rework technologies and global provider of X-ray inspection systems, announces that it has been awarded a Global Technology Award in the category of Rework and Repair for its SRT Micra Rework Platform. The award was presented to the company during a Tuesday, November 15, 2011 ceremony that took place at the New Munich Trade Fair Centre in Munich, Germany during Productronica 2011. This marks the Micra’s third industry award since its introduction.
The SRT Micra is a brand new bench top platform that is specifically designed for the rework of mobile products incorporating small, high density electronic devices, such as Smartphones, Netbooks, GPS and other handheld products. The new SierraMate V9 software simplifies process definition and assures consistent, repeatable results between facilities and even continents. The systems’ redesigned heaters and revolutionary power controls provide extremely high throughput and unmatched results, regardless of typical facility voltage variations.
The Micra offers an unprecedented Auto-Run feature, a newly developed automated process set-up tool and a virtual process engineer. Auto-Run minimizes rework setup and profiling times. Highly efficient heaters on the Micra minimize rework cycle times and maximize production throughput. The systems’ inherent accuracy and fixed position core (head) easily accommodates tiny electronic device packages, including 01005 micro-passives and 0.3 mm pitch area array devices.
The Micra also delivers optimized scavenging and the automated removal of residual solder, including tightly spaced micro-passives, PoP layers, asymmetrical RF Shield patterns and micro-BGA sub-millimeter lands and pitches. Additionally, the Micra provides a complete mobile device rework solution.
Premiering in 2005, the Global Technology Awards program is an annual celebration of product excellence in electronics surface mount assembly. Premier products based on the finest examples of creative advancement in technology are chosen by a distinguished panel of industry experts.
VJ Electronix, Inc. manufactures production ready Rework and X-ray inspection solutions with many advanced capabilities. The company also provides custom Rework and X-ray solutions tailored to satisfy specific application requirements.
