Automated Soldering – Iron Tip Machines

Iron Tip Machines

L-CAT NEO-N

3RD Generation Gantry-Style Solder Robot
The L-CAT NEO-N is the culmination of over 45 years of experience in the robotic soldering industry.

With this next-generation robot we’ve directly built in all necessary elements of modern selective soldering. Designed for either an in-line or lean manufacturing process, the L-CAT NEO-N is an exemple of both cutting-edge sophistication and high-speed operation performance.

The built in monitor on the NEO-N allows for viewing the soldering process and aides in programming the application. Robot teaching can be performed by the touch panel Teaching Pendant, a PC or an IPAD. Fiducial recognition and tip position alignment can easily be added to ensure proper tip & PCB alignment. This guarantees an accurate position and ensures the highest quality soldering results.

Features

  • Easily Adjusted Fiducial Recognition and Tip Position Alignment
  • Built-in Montior + Variety of Supported Devices
  • Programming Freedom

LUNA & TERRA Automated Soldering Units

LUNA and TERRA systems have been designed exclusively for automated soldering. These soldering units can be widely adapted for use in semi & fully automated systems, such as dial-table systems, conveyor systems, desk-top robots, linear actuators and your special purpose machines. Equipped with a large, color, touch-panel displays, these units are easily read and interacted with for programming, management, and host connection. And, with multiple-power support, these units can be used in areas without trans AC220V.

The TERRA
The TERRA offers a whopping 297 soldering profiles, making it a solution for all types of soldering application challenges. Its 200 watt heater also enables it to handle large thermal mass components.

The LUNA
The LUNA is essentially a smaller, more specific version of the TERRA. With 7 soldering profiles to address both point and slide iron-tip soldering, and a 130 watt heater, the LUNA is a flexible and effective unit.

M1-CAT300i

Parallel-link Soldering Robot
The M1-CAT300i is a high speed, multi-function soldering robot that adopts the technology of the Fanuc Genkotsu robot (fist dexterity). This is the world’s first soldering robot that operates with parallel-link technology. The high performance operation of six flexible axes make it possible to change the height, direction and angle of the iron tip. This lightweight and compact mechanical unit has been designed to fit into tight work spaces. Incorporating the optional iRVision image positioning system, the robot will be guided to the correct solder location every time.

Iron-Tip Soldering Units

Iron Units for Point and Slide Soldering
We offer 3 units, one for point soldering and 2 for slide. It takes 8 seconds to replace an iron cartridge and does not require position adjustment upon iron cartridge replacement. The solder feeding position can be precisely set by adjusting the set screw.
RSP Model For Point Soldering:
This unit can achieve high speed point soldering. The slim design makes it possible to solder applications with tight accessibility issues. This unit has both a pre-feed and secondary feed height adjustment.
RSL & RSL-FPR Models For Slide Soldering:
These iron units are designed for slide soldering. The spring loaded tip assembly will not damage PCB solder mask during the slide operation.

JS TERRA/ JS COMET

Iron-tip SCARA: Selective Compliance Assembly Robot Arm
This high-speed, axially-moving robot is ideal for use with in-line applications designed for full automation.

J-CAT Stellar

This desktop soldering robot is essentially the high-powered model of the J-CAT COMET. With an optional 200 watt heating attachment and the ability to use larger, 2.0mm solder diameter, this machine is most useful in soldering high-heat-sink applications such as a multilayer board and shielding case.

L-CAT EVO II

The latest iteration of the EVO line, the L-CAT EVO II is an iron-tip robot designed for both desktop and in-line applications, with smoother and more reliable axes, expanded I/O, and Ethernet capability.

Where the EVO II truly shines is flexibility. With a capacity for 100 programs, 100,000 points, and 300 soldering profiles with customizable soldering temperature for optimal quality and cycle time, this machine is capable of meeting virtually any PCB soldering requirement.

Throw in its X&Y motors with high-accuracy rotary encoders, achieving 0.01 mm resolution (repeatability 0.02mm) and a maximum speed of 750 mm/sec, and you can see what makes the EVO II a reliable choice.

J-CAT COMET

Desktop Soldering Robot
This iron-tip soldering robot comes in 5 work envelope sizes ranging from 200mm to 600 mm. Highly expandable and accompanied by simple, clean, customizable software, the J-CAT COMET is very flexible and easily tailored to meet your needs.

Features

  • Improved Speed and Accuracy
  • 6-Axes Support (Optional)
  • LAN (Ethernet) Port
