Built to do the job and built to last.
We had an unusual request for blasting the back of flex circuits to improve the laser solderability of the parts. The backing was too reflective and meant that the laser welds were not always consistent. Initially we fabricated a simple tool to mask the unblasted area and ran parts for the customer with our Micro Abrasive Blasting Service. Once the customer wanted to ramp up on the number of parts processed a custom machine was built to create a uniform area over the back of the area soldered that would not reflect the laser and improve the efficiency of the weld.
The simple to use, machine has tooling to process 10 flexes on each cycle. A simple PLC controller takes care of the machine operation to control the pneumatic arm and the interlocks for the door and blast control.
The machine set up with a Comco Microblaster.
Inside the blast chamber, the slot in the tooling allows a uniform abrasion of the parts and allows easy loading and unloading of the parts.
