Advanced Features
What sets the S103 apart from lower models like the S63 or S43 are several "premium" inclusions:
Pneumatic Non-Contact Depth Limiter: Uses an "air-foot" to maintain a consistent milling depth without physically touching the delicate surface of the board. This prevents scratches and surface damage on sensitive substrates.
Integrated Vacuum Table: Standard on the S103, this ensures the material is held perfectly flat against the workspace, which is essential for machining flexible or thin rigid-flex PCBs.
Optical Fiducial Recognition: A built-in camera system that automatically aligns the board by recognizing fiducial marks. This allows for high-precision double-sided milling and multilayer alignment.
Solder Paste Dispensing: It can be equipped to automatically apply solder paste to the board after milling, streamlining the assembly process.
