I'm not sure where you're located, but you should try contacting your Regional Sales Rep for ECD or KIC Thermal. They often times have demo units that they are required to "demo" several times per year. They may be willing to come in and profile your

Hello Derek, Many new ovens do not have the TC connections for use with trailing wires any longer. As "A Very Frazzled Man" said there are several types of profilers available at varying prices, depending on your requirements. I would be happy to s

My guess is that someone either clamped a board or a ramp at the end while adjusting the width. I have had this issue before. Remove the rails and look down them like a gun sight. I have never had any luck trying to adjust out big bends. If you wan

180deg More important are the preheat and soakzones and temp ramps. How to check: I used to do it as follows: use a TEST-PCB with fixed thermocouples and connect it to the mole. Print the profile on transparant paper. do it again e.g. each week and

Maybe here's an opportunity to get a new oven. Electrovert, BTU and Vitronics offer closed-loop N2 control as an option. This, together with other improvements on oven design can reduce N2 consumption by as much as 40%. Not to mention reductions in e

I have people ask me on occasion how many hours an oven has run and for the life of me can't figure out why they would want to know that. Who cares? They work until they don't...not much middle ground...unlike a chipshooter which will reach a point t

Directors and company owners care since they're buying it. It's like an odometer on a car - just an indicator. But like your chipshooter example, moving parts on an oven wear out too. They just don't stop working. Plus they're subjected to higher

We have an OmniFlo 7, 2000 vintage reflow. We are having conveyor problems. I checked the encoder and speed control board and everything is good per tech. manual operations. We removed the chains a couple months ago and thoroughly soaked/cleaned t

Got it powered back on Friday.... We did check the UPS (power-supply)and indeed it was bad. So we referenced the manual and found you can bypass the UPS all together. So we just directly plugged the machine past the UPS. Well the machine is running b
