MPS700 bottom-side selective iron soldering machine

As a complement or an alternative to mini-wave and traditional selective soldering techniques, the MPS700 bottom-side selective iron soldering machine provides maximum accessibility and eliminates copper dissolution in high-mass joints, thanks to mta iron technology. It meets mass production requirements of quality, reliability and cycle times.

The iron head consists of a powerful heating element and a high precision wire feeder. A compact vision system positioned close to the iron head adjusts the solder point locations. A 4-axis system guarantees quick and precise movements.

Description

As a complement or an alternative to mini-wave and traditional selective soldering techniques, the MPS700 bottom-side selective iron soldering machine provides maximum accessibility and eliminates copper dissolution in high-mass joints, thanks to mta iron technology. It meets mass production requirements of quality, reliability and cycle times.

The iron head consists of a powerful heating element and a high precision wire feeder. A compact vision system positioned close to the iron head adjusts the solder point locations. A 4-axis system guarantees quick and precise movements.

The MPS700 includes our mta classic soldering iron head.

Finally, the easy-to-use software allows to quickly start using the equipment and to achieve efficient results without having to spend hours learning how to use it.

Through-hole soldering components PCB

As the MPS700 machine is an inline, bottom-side, process that uses a robotic soldering iron, it is ideally suited to solder problematic joints; thus, allowing manufacturers to process the entire board inline.

The overall throughput improves as problematic joints do not need to be processed offline.

Quality and consistency also improve dramatically as hand-soldering is eliminated and wave technology is not forced to solder joints beyond its technical limits.

8 reasons to choose the mta MPS700 bottom side selective iron soldering machine

  1. Soldering iron can reach points inaccessible by other soldering machines.
  2. Fluxing of boards not required before soldering.
  3. Quick and easy change of solder alloys – swap the solder spool.
  4. Very low maintenance – no solder tanks, dross, or flux residue to clean.
  5. Automatic realignment of solder points for precise process control.
  6. Taylor individual soldering parameters for each point.
  7. Ability to process a wide range of PCB dimensions.
  8. Quick and easy integration thanks to SMEMA standards.
