Apr 23, 2014 KIC is proud to announce the launch of its new thermal profiler, the K2, which will make its European debut at SMT Nuremberg, May 6-8, 2014 at the SMT Hybrid Packaging at the Exhibition Centre in Nuremberg Germany.
The K2 builds on KIC’s tradition of a compact and robust hardware that measures profiles accurately, even in harsh environments. The plug-and-play hardware and graphical user interface makes profiling both quick and easy. The KIC software enables each thermocouple to use its own unique process window, while the optimization software automatically suggests the best oven setup to process the entire PCB and components in spec. This convenience, combined with lightning fast speed, allows oven setup in a few seconds.
The profile data measured by the K2 can now be viewed both on a PC as well as on authorized Android and Apple mobile devices. The Mobile Profile Viewer App is also WiFi and Bluetooth compatible.
“At KIC we strive to combine the accuracy and power of our profilers with speed and ease of use,” said Bjorn Dahle, President of KIC. “The Mobile Profile Viewer App is the natural next step in the progression of this technology.”
The K2 also features fail-safe software that reduces the opportunity for error. It enables a responsible process engineer to set the quality parameters while letting operators or technicians run the profiles.
