NuFLEX-i2 Questions and Answers

What positioning accuracy does the NuFlex-i2 achieve?

±0.05mm via X/Y/Z1/Z2 servo motor axes. The 4-axis servo drive maximizes space efficiency while maintaining precision for tight-pitch pads.

What preheating configuration does the NuFlex-i2 use?

Standard top and bottom IR preheating. The bottom zone stays in a retracted standby position when not in use to maximize energy savings.

What solder pot configuration does the NuFlex-i2 include?

Two stations with 35 kg total capacity (15 kg per pot) and independent Z-axis control. Max heater temperature is 350°C with PID control and a ~40-minute heat-up time.

What are the NuFlex-i2 N2 and exhaust requirements?

Consumption: 4 m³/h; Purity: >99.99%; Exhaust: 800 m³/h . Requirements are compatible with smaller SelMate N2 generator models.

What is included in the NuFlex-i2 software package?

Windows 10 platform featuring point-and-click programming, wave height calibration, and real-time process monitoring of speed, height, and dwell time.

How does the NuFlex-i2's two-section conveyor add flexibility?

Single long PCB mode supports boards up to 508×508mm; dual short PCB mode processes two smaller boards simultaneously to double throughput without mechanical reconfiguration.

How does the NuFlex-i2 advanced preheat zone save energy?

It activates only half the zone length based on the actual PCB length. The bottom preheating zone stays in standby and only moves forward when a board is loaded, reducing energy consumption .

Is the NuFlex-i2 right for low-volume prototype production?

Yes. Setup time is ~10 minutes by drawing paths on scanned images, making it economical for prototype runs and high-mix production.

What makes the NuFlex-i2 unique compared to other selective soldering machines?

It is the most space-efficient inline machine with a footprint of only 1,880mm (L) × 1,753mm (W) and a weight of 900 kg. Despite its size, it features 4-axis servo drive and two independent solder pots.

What NuFlex-i2 flux system is included, and is a second fluxer available?

Standard: 1 German-made 1L drop jet fluxer. Optional: A second fluxer set can be added for dual flux type application or throughput enhancement.
