Page 87 ECD Intros Latest Generation Thermal Profiler
Milwaukie, OR — ECD announces is introducing its SuperM.O.L.E.® Gold 2 (SMG2) thermal profiler, the latest in its diverse line of thermal profiling equipment and software. Continuing SuperM.O.L.E.® Gold’s legacy as industry workhorse, SMG2 analyzes both old and new thermal profiles from ECD and its competitors, elimi- nating roadblocks, providing new analyses, increasing ease of use, and protecting against profiling loss. Design features, including an
On/Off button configured to prevent accidentally shutting off the unit and losing profiles, help assure greater yield and throughput speed. LEDs, color-coded to the six thermocouples, indicate right on the profiler whether or not circuits are complete and soft- ware activated, eliminating “opens” and wasted runs. n the past, this information was only available through a computer and its software; showing it directly on the profiler substantially reduces operator train- ing time. In addition, the patented
Rehm: Vapor Phase and Convection Soldering
Blaubeuren-Seissen, Germany — Rehm Thermal Systems is showcasing its advanced thermal technologies — both convection and condensation sol- dering systems. On display is the advanced, vacuum-capable Condenso condensation (vapor phase) soldering system, which reportedly delivers 10 times the heating efficiency of convec- tion soldering, while producing a much more uniform temperature distribu- tion during the reflow process.
Latest thermal profiler.
“OK Button” — standard on all later- generation ECD profilers — gives
operators a clear “Go/No-Go” signal, saving valuable engineering time. SMG2’s MAP® software ensures
full compatibility with other profilers (MEGAM.O.L.E.®20, V-M.O.L.E.®, PTP®-VP8 Vapor Phase) and oven monitoring products (WaveRIDER® and OvenRIDER®), overcoming geo- graphical distance, language barri- ers, and different computers. For additional cost-effectiveness,
SMG2 can also “drive” oven-monitor- ing pallets such as Wave RIDER and OvenRIDER, plugging into the ther- mal barrier’s internal docking station and eliminating shorting plugs. Sampling speed is automatically adjusted, providing quick and easy oven monitoring on assembly floors,
and for many oven OEMS who test their product before shipment. According to the company, the
durable one-piece SMG2 withstands thousands of runs, stores 96 profiles, and seldom needs repair or mainte- nance, only yearly calibration. RoHS compatible, it includes rechargeable lithium battery, thermal barrier, “Yellow Jacket,” USB connection, and K-type thermocouples, providing long life and minimum environmen- tal impact.

Convection soldering oven. Vapor phase is especially suit-
able for thermally challenging PCB assemblies requiring a lead-free sol- der process, and also eliminates the potential for thermal damage to com- ponents or PCBs. A vacuum option can be combined with the reflow process to produce virtually void-free solder joints, enabling consistently high quality soldering, regardless of PCB complexity. The company is also showing its
VisionXS convection reflow residue management system, with its pio- neering Pyrolysis technology. Pyroly - sis is the thermally induced decom- position of organic compounds, enabling complex molecules to be broken down into simpler sub- stances. Liquid and crystalline res - idues are drastically reduced, ena - bling extraordinary efficiency and dramatically increased maintenance intervals of up to one year. Contact: Rehm Thermal Sys -
