Custommadeand completepackage
IPTEdesigned theXYZW-gantrysystem
with four degreesof freedom,with
support from Festoduring thedesignand
productionprocess. TheX-, Y- andZ-axes

(W-axis), Festodevelopeda custommade
module. Thegantry for flexibleand
controlledspeedandacceleration (XYZ-
axis) anda rotarymoduleERMBwere
speciallyadapted to thesystemandare
used for liftingand rotating thesoldering
needle. Thismeans that thesystem can
reachevendifficult toaccess locations in
thesensor housing, andsolder at
precisely the right anglewith the right
force. It is capableofhighspeed
positioning, despite thehighmoving
mass.
