At the show, Seika will debut the MC-1002 PCB Storage Cabinet for the first time. The low-cost, high performance cabinet was developed to assist companies that are trying to conform to IPC-1601 August 2010 Printed Board Handling and Storage Guidelines.
The cabinet is ESD-IEC61340-5-1 compliant and grounded to prevent static electricity. The system is equipped with a digital RH meter and maintains a 3 percent RH level. Additionally, the PCB storage cabinet features locking doors and adjustable shelves that can hold up to 220lbs.
Also on display, the DXU-580AF Feeder Storage Cabinet features an ergonomic design for smaller quantity storage that may be placed on each line. This system can hold up to 20 feeders depending on the reel size and is ergonomic because it uses a sliding shelf for ease of installation and removal. The height and angle also are designed for most operators to handle feeder storage easily. As an option, this model features one shelf for storage of trays and extra reels.
The MB-301 Low Temperature & Low Humidity Baking Cabinet features a 40C° baking temperature, as well as a 5 percent RH humidity level during bake out period and 3 percent RH level in dry storage. The cabinet’s electrostatic discharge conforms to the IEC-61340-5-1 (ESD) Standard for Handling. The MB-301 cabinet comes standard with a drying unit and can be used as a regular dry storage cabinet when heater for baking is turned off. Additional features include a large display digital RH meter and a 1MΩ ground terminal.
Seika also will highlight new features for McDry Storage Cabinets, including the McDry Signal Tower and ERC-301AD Hygrometer with Alarm System. With the new hygrometer, the light signal will flash and audible alarm will sound off when the humidity level goes over the set limit over a fixed period of time. After the alarm flashes, the unit will save ten data readings, one per hour.
