Selectiva Xi 
Automated Selective Soldering System for Through-Hole Applications


 

General 
 

The Selectiva Xi is an In-Line Selective Soldering system designed for the mixed SMT / Through-hole assembly industry. The system performs automatic and selective laser soldering of all types of through-hole components (connectors, large capacitors, odd-shaped electronic components).
 
 
The system utilizes a power controlled diode laser with closed loop temperature and solder volume control. The high power diode laser provides high performance, low operation costs, long life and minimal maintenance.
With the Selectiva Xi soldering is carried out from the bottom of the board, which eliminates the need to flip the board prior to the soldering process, allowing the user to truly incorporate the machine in the SMT line. Selectiva Xi uses vision system for auto alignment, simple download of CAD data to create programs, and an offline editor to allow users to program away from the machine.
 
 
 
 Main Benefits
  • High Power diode laser (75 W) for reduced soldering time
  • Automated in-line operation using CAD and BOM data & JEDEC component library
  • Closed loop soldering temperature control allows fast set-up, eliminating temperature profiling of individual solder joints and allows small lot production starting from a single board
  • High soldering quality with precise and repeatable heating
  • Bottom soldering allows using the system without component supporting fixtures and board lip-Over
  • Significant saving of time and money by eliminating the use of protective fixtures
 
 
System Features
  • Maximum board size – 390 x 380 mm (15.3" x 14.9"), expendable to 610 x 508 mm (24" x 20" - optional)
  • Vision system for auto-alignment using board fiducials
  • Using standard CAD and BOM files and utilizing on-board component library of components geometry
  • WIN 2000 operation system and comfortable GUI
  • Average Soldering time of 1 sec per Joint
  • Full SMEMA support allows in-line operation
  • Stand alone operation
