OK International to Showcase Metcal & Techcon Brands at APEX

DOWNERS GROVE, Ill., Jan. 23, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- OK International, part of Dover (NYSE: DOV), announced plans to exhibit at the 2019 IPC APEX EXPO, scheduled to take place January 29-31, 2019, at the San Diego Convention Center. The company will demonstrate products from its core brands, Metcal for soldering and fume extraction, and Techcon for fluid dispensing.

Metcal will feature its Connection Validation (CV) Robotic Soldering System, CV Soldering System with new hand-pieces, and more products:

CV Robotic Soldering System:

Robotic soldering is becoming more commonplace as manufacturers look to reduce risk and increase productivity. Metcal's new CV Robotic Soldering System addresses these needs by combining its patented CV technology with a new Smart Interface System. CV reduces unnecessary dwell time by signalling to the system to move to the next solder joint in the program after a good joint is formed. The Smart Interface System simplifies the programming process by integrating system controls through an easy-to-use interface.

CV Soldering System:

Metcal will introduce the latest CV hand-pieces and assorted cartridges that transform the CV-5200 soldering system into the solution for even the most challenging soldering applications. All of the new hand-pieces are now available with a number of unique tip cartridge geometries. The tip cartridges are available in a variety of temperature series to satisfy the most challenging applications.

Techcon will showcase its TSR2000 Smart Dispensing Robots and TS8100-100 PC Pump with new controller:

TSR2000 Series Smart Dispensing Robots:

TSR2000 Series Smart Dispensing Robots are designed specifically for precise fluid dispensing applications and are compatible with all valve types and controllers. The user-friendly, smart PC-based software make the robots easy to program and simple to operate.

From a general assembly manufacturer looking to automate an existing dispensing application, to an engineer designing a production process from the very beginning, Techcon Systems dispensing robots offer unsurpassed value in automated precision fluid dispensing. The basic dispensing robot series are available in three platforms:

• TSR2201: 200mm X 200mm  
• TSR2301: 300mm X 300mm  
• TSR2401: 400mm X 400mm

TS8100-100 Positive Displacement PC Pump:

TS8100-100 Positive Displacement PC Pump is a continuously volumetric pump volumetric dispense designed based on Progressive Cavity (PC) technology. The pump can accurately dispense a wide range of fluids, from low-viscosity coatings to high-viscosity greases. The TS580R is a Smart PC Pump controller capable of controlling the Techcon TS8100 series PC Pump.
