Manufacturer of equipment used in the testing and inspection of electronic components, Nordson Test & Inspection has improved some features of its Assure X-ray Component Counter.
Inventory knowledge is essential for modern industry. Whether you are a SMT manufacturer, supplier or broker, live assurance of correct inventory in your MRP system at all times minimizes stock, labor, errors and costs ensuring customer confidence and trust to keep SMT lines running efficiently, the company explained.
“Developed by our team in Eckental, north of Nuremberg, Germany, Assure is intelligent, simple, fast, and trustworthy, enabling you to increase productivity, minimize component shortage and SMT line downtime, multiple set-ups and expensive additional component procurement and safety stock,“ the equipment provider said.
Intelligent
Counting components should not require hours of programming. The company says the new system is a true plug-and-play solution which uses advanced algorithms to identify new components and does not rely on libraries or reliance on “cloud-only” support.
Simple
One button operation and an intuitive touchscreen interface means users can learn the new counter within minutes. Installation is easy with an exceptionally small footprint and system weight.
Fast
“Optimized for speed, it counts components fast regardless of how full or empty the reel is. Process inventory sooner and minimize labor time and cost.
Trustworthy
According to Nordson, the new counter validates results immediately and automatically with accuracy exceeding 99.9% on most components, guaranteeing the quality of the count and simultaneously updating ERP and inventory storage systems.
“Assure is an invaluable addition to Nordson’s x-ray product range” said Daniel Schneider, Sales Director EMEA at Nordson Test & Inspection. “Assure guarantees our customers have precise knowledge of their inventory at all times, keeping their SMT lines running.”
