Introduction

Designed to meet the needs of the small/medium batch manufacturer who requires high levels of production flexibility, the Jade MKII entry-level system offers uncompromised selective soldering quality at a very low cost.

The Jade MKII is a handload system, incorporating a universally adjustable tooling carrier capable of accommodating PCBs or pallets up to 457mm x 508mm (18” x 20”).

Our patented Drop-Jet design fluxer offers quick and effective flushing of the pressurised flux chamber. This helps to keep maintenance levels to a minimum whilst enabling use of higher solid content fluxes as well as water-soluble fluxes. The equipment can be fitted with a small soldering nozzle of 1.5 mm diameter, unique on the market, which allows even the most difficult soldering tasks to be carried out.

Thanks to its easy programmability and simple operation, it is the world’s most popular offline soldering system.
