Delta X Wave Soldering Machine

ITW EAE – Soltec – Delta X Wave Soldering Machine

THE VITRONICS SOLTEC DELTA X WAVE SOLDERING MACHINE

The Vitronics Soltec Delta X wave soldering machine has evolved from a long heritage of soldering machines with thousands in production worldwide.  With technology driven features developed over generations the Delta X is a reliable, dependable and cost-efficient wave soldering machine.  

Outstanding Throughput

Up to three products can be porcessed simultaneously for maximized throughput.

Fluxing Unit
Pressure controlled flux supply with stepper motor for precise, repeatable flux application.

Heavy Duty Titanium Fingers

Standard HD fingers will dramatically reduce finger replacement
Flexible chain allows for smooth interface and will not warp the assembly due to the thermal expansion

PCB Tracking Systems

The Delta X platforms tracking systems automatically recognizes the mechanical contact point of all subsystems, these positions can be modified per recipe.

  • Allows for recipes independent optimization of wave contact position
  • Assists with warped assemblies at wave interface
  • Prevents masking of overhanging components
  • Keeps excessive flux of pallets, minimizing cleaning

Conveyor System – Parallelism


A robust conveyor and chains keep the assembly interface with the wave equal and parallel.

Multiple lead-screws that are mechanically driven ensure parallel rails: Parallel to 1.0 mm

Solderpot blocking system guarantees repeatable positioning

Ensures repeatable interfacing of product to the solderwaves

Thermal expansion systems on entrance end allows for smooth trouble free operation

Preheater


Preheat configurations for process flexibility: IR calrod, quartz lamps and forced convection.  Modules are easy exchangeable and configurable in the software.

Solderpot


Titanium solder pot components with unique dross management design.

Crash Detection


Ensures proper loading and unloading of the PCB in the fingers

Mechanical sensitivity adjustment

Software controlled sensitivity time out and on/off

Location specific crash alarm and designation

Base Wire Support

Optional PCB wire support from fluxer to end of main wave

Retracts under rail when not in use via down turn cams

Supports multi-up panels

1.5 mm wire

Nozzle Spray Fluxer

Accurate and repeatable

Self-speed calibration

Heavy duty locking mount of spray nozzle

Accurate flux deposition by stepper motor control

Sealed flux delivery system

Statistical test analysis confirmed high repeatability

Under rail protection covers prevent flux penetration to underside of rail and conveyor chains

Ease of use

NitroWave

Decreases wetting time

Up to 50% reduction in dross

Easily retrofitted

Low cost of ownership

SmartWave

Patented technology

Ensures excellent hole fill by producing vertical pressure within the wave

Allows for soldering certain SMT assemblies with one wave

Increase wave depth without pumpkin additional solder
