Dip-Flux Feeder facilitates flip chip assembly.

Dip-Flux Feeder facilitates flip chip assembly.

Dip-Flux Feeder picks up component from waffle tray, stick feeder, or tape feeder, then dips component, leads, or BGA balls into rotating flux bath. It then places component or flip chip onto board or substrate. Fixed squeegee in rotating flux bath ensures constant flux wave height. Laser sensors detect approaching components and halt squeegee rotation for duration of dipping process. Feeder is...
