With the new VERSAFLOW FIVE, Ersa is presenting the new benchmark in high-end selective soldering at Productronica 2025. Having been developed for the most demanding industries - from automotive and aerospace to industrial electronics - it offers an unprecedented combination of throughput, process reliability, ease of use, and energy efficiency. Optimized for a wide range of different PCB formats (up to 685 mm in length), the machine also features a new, modern design.

In high-end electronics manufacturing, manual setup and maintenance tasks cost valuable production hours every day, tie up expensive specialist personnel, and increase the risk of process deviations. The Ersa VERSAFLOW FIVE meets this challenge with innovative features such as VERSAFLEX 2.0, automatic flux nozzle cleaning, automatic solder nozzle changer, matrix bottom heating, and CAD expert mode. These features optimize production processes, increase efficiency and enable electronics manufacturers targeting high volumes with varying requirements to achieve maximum productivity and uncompromising quality while minimizing the consumption of resources.

VERSAFLOW FIVE is the first generation of machines to incorporate the newly developed VERSAFLEX 2.0 solder module, which enables exceptional format flexibility. In addition to standard sizes, XL boards up to 685 mm in length can be processed. A second stopper allows two PCBs, each 320 mm in length, to be soldered simultaneously without prior synchronization, enabling output increases in the double-digit percentage range. In synchronous mode, both axes move parallel at a fixed distance, resulting in consistent soldering quality and significantly reduced cycle times when processing panels. In asynchronous mode, on the other hand, the axis systems operate independently, each with its own soldering program. This allows two circuit boards with different nozzle geometries or solder alloys to be processed simultaneously. The integrated collision monitoring ensures safe operation at any time. The maximum PCB width is 508 mm, the maximum PCB weight is 12 kg.
