KIC announces that it will showcase the new ProBot, a flexible, affordable and easy-to-use automatic profiling system, in the REStronics Southern California booth at the upcoming SMTA LA/Orange County Expo & Tech Forum, scheduled to take place Thursday, November 1, 2012 at the Irvine Marriott in CA. The ProBot is the profiling machine for your profile machine.
The ProBot automatically verifies whether each PCB is processed to specification in the reflow oven. The suspect PCBs then can be sent off to batch X-ray. Because the typical batch X-ray machine only inspects less than one percent of all assembled PCBs, the ProBot allows for a more effective sampling.
The ProBot is designed to fit virtually any reflow oven on the market. The product is highly modular, allowing each user to specify the desired features. There no longer is a need to pay for unnecessary or unwanted capabilities.
