Asymtek Announces the Century® C-740 Series
Selective Conformal Coating System

Carlsbad, CA — Asymtek’s Century® 740 Series Selective Conformal Coating System, equipped with Easy Coat® for Windows NT® (ECNT) software, provides consistent, uniform dispensing of a variety of conformal coating materials for both batch and inline applications. Asymtek’s cost-effective, patented dispensing technology on the C-740 replaces traditional dip, brush, handgun, and aerosol spray systems with repeatable delivery of solvent-based and 100-percent solids materials.

The C-740 system, equipped with Easy Coat® for Windows NT® (ECNT) software, offers increased coating flexibility within a familiar Windows® environment. Multiple coating commands can be edited simultaneously, without interruption, minimizing the time required to make programming and pattern changes. The system’s tri-mode Swirl Coat module is ideal for conformal coating a high mix of circuit boards using a wide range of 100-percent solids materials with viscosity of 10 to 3,500 centipoise.

Several options can be added to meet specific application requirements, including fan width control, bar code recognition system, and light curtain. An inline board inverter can also be added for two-sided conformal coating. For curing of conformal coating materials, an IR/convection module is available in four heating lengths.

Asymtek supplies award-winning automated fluid dispensing systems to the semiconductor, surface mount, electronics packaging and industrial markets. Together, Asymtek and parent company Nordson Corporation (NASDAQ: NDSN) form one of the world's largest businesses dedicated to dispensing. Their unique partnering of applications engineering and product expertise is a solid testimonial of their commitment to offer total dispensing solutions and local support to customers throughout the world.
