BTU International to Debut New Solder Reflow Capabilities at Nepcon China

BTU International will highlight its new dual-lane, dual-speed capabilities of the Pyramax solder reflow system, as well as next generation high efficiency flux management, at the upcoming Nepcon China 2011. The event is scheduled to take place May 11-13, 2011 in Shanghai, China.

Dual-lane reflow ovens have been used for years to increase production in a single reflow oven by allowing two boards to be run at the same time in parallel. Until recently dual-lane processing has been limited to running identical or nearly identical boards in each of the lanes. However, the new BTU dual-lane reflow ovens with independent lane speeds now make it possible to run boards with larger differences, simultaneously.

"Our Pyramax platform is a high performance reflow system known worldwide for superior process results,” said CoCo Zhang, Product Marketing Manager for Electronics Markets at BTU. "These improvements will enhance the system’s productivity. Multiple speeds provide customers who have high-mix products the opportunity to maximize their operation."

"The high-efficiency flux management system further reduces downtime and is easy to maintain with automated feedback of servicing requirements,” said Zhang.
