I have used KIC data acquisition equipment for over 11 years. Slim kic, sideKic and Kic2000, prophet etc... The 9 volt battry changes in seconds. Gimme a break. The internals don't reach 54Celsius. If it came down to batteries, I bet KIC would t

Good Afternoon, I'm am probably asking a question that has been answered a million times but I am looking for other operators and process engineer feedback on the slim kic 2000 profiling unit. I have played with the unit several times and am not to s

I've used ECD's WaveRIDER and TIC's Wave Optimizer, and some people have sworn by Malcom's wave reader as well (if you look at all the past threads). We HAD an optimizer here in our shop, but somebody bwoke it. :-( As for evaluating these, see Chu

I agree with Idumont.....KIC works great for me, it has 9 inputs, and is pretty good at predicting the direction that you may need to tweak your profile, the only thing is I think that these untis ( slim kic 2000) are fairly spendy. not sure though,

There was a discussion on this a few weeks back. Basically if you HAVE to do this because you have an older oven that you dont trust or your customers/ISO force you to do it then just do it monthly on the test board only. Doing it on the test board a

What is everyone using for reflow profile development? I currently am using a Kic 2000 which is OK but the software's guesses on profile improvement are inaccurate and its difficult to compare two profiles to each other. The 7TC also limits how many

It took me awhile to "warm up" to KIC 2000 as well, as I, too, am an old lead-head from way back who used to profile with an old MOLE that used DOS-based software. I've also used the old SlimKIC II and Datapaq as well. I guess what he meant by "old

We do not know how your KIC2000 calculates slope. Here's an approach to calculating slope: * Subtract the lower temperature from the upper temperature. [Temp|upper-Temp|lower] = Temp|change * Subtract the time when the lower temperature was measured

Bingo! In my career, I've used Wave Solder optimizer and the WaveRIDER. Pro's and Con's to both. I did a GR&R on both as well, and WaveRIDER came out on top. The main challenge is to get the operators to use it. I've found that the operators wer

Wavemaster Larry must be new to the forum. What a nut! Sounds like a dude who needs to get his internet access taken away. In Riyadh, Larry, you'd get your arms sawed off for those comments! Grant is right. Hardware-wise, all thermal profilers
