Nordson Corporation 's ( NDSN - Free Report ) unit, Nordson Electronics Solutions, introduced Synchro 3 for high-volume printed circuit board assembly applications. Nordson's SELECT Synchro is a multi-station selective soldering system that increases throughput by using a unique, synchronous motion. The new Synchro 3 Soldering System can accommodate a maximum of three soldering stations for various alloys and different or singular nozzles, and can handle board sizes up to 2500 x 460 millimeters (mm). The SELECT Synchro selective soldering equipment series earlier included Synchro 5 and Synchro 5 XL models. The Synchro 5 system can also handle boards up to 2500 x 460 mm, while the Synchro 5 XL handles 2500 x 680 mm boards. The SELECT Synchro system uses a patent-pending synchronous motion technology, which lowers conveyance time significantly. The product also increases throughput by 20-40% for most applications while reducing carbon footprint by a maximum of 60%.
