May 27, 2024 Solderstar, a global leader in temperature profiling equipment for soldering processes, is gearing up to showcase its latest innovation, the Reflow Shuttle with O2 measurement module, at the upcoming SMTconnect exhibition in Nuremberg, Germany.
Scheduled to take place on 11-12 June 2024, the SMTconnect event serves as a premier platform for connecting professionals and technologies in the field of electronics manufacturing across Europe. Solderstar's participation underlines its commitment to pushing the boundaries of technological advancement in the industry.
The Reflow Shuttle O2 represents a significant leap forward in reflow soldering technology, offering manufacturers an innovative tool for achieving unparalleled precision and control in their soldering processes. This ground-breaking innovation consolidates real-time oxygen (O2) measurement, vibration levels, vacuum reading, temperature profiles, and conveyor speed onto a single robust platform.
Mark Stansfield, CEO of Solderstar, said: "With the Reflow Shuttle O2, we are providing manufacturers with the tools they need to make informed decisions and optimise their reflow soldering processes. By offering detailed insights into all critical parameters, we're enabling our customers to enhance quality and efficiency in their soldering operations like never before."
The Reflow Shuttle O2's zone-by-zone analysis of oxygen levels throughout the reflow process enables manufacturers to precisely monitor oxygen content and detect nitrogen leaks, allowing for immediate adjustments to optimise nitrogen consumption and ensure process quality is maintained.
One of the key features of the Reflow Shuttle O2 is its simple integration into existing reflow ovens, eliminating downtime during verification. Its user-friendly interface enables easy data collection initiation, facilitating rapid adjustments if irregularities are detected. The tool's versatile design ensures uninterrupted verification across multiple production lines, enhancing overall manufacturing efficiency.

Solderstar is a recognised technology leader in the design and manufacture of thermal profiling systems for electronic soldering processes.
With offices in UK, USA and a technical centre in Germany the company offers the most comprehensive range of process control support and solutions for electronic manufacturers.
Solderstar personnel have over 30 years of temperature profiling design experience, combined with in-depth industry and process knowledge, and a ‘can do’ attitude to product and process improvement.
When Solderstar launched its first product offerings, lead-free manufacturing was, for most in the industry, a dot on the horizon. For Solderstar, lead-free soldering was already upon us. It was recognised early-on that soldering within electronic assemblies was set to go through something of a revolution, with new thermal processes needing to be established and controlled like never before. It was seen that electronics manufacturers all over the world would need improved thermal profiling solutions capable of meeting the demands of the newly emerging thermal processes and advancement in soldering machines and ovens.
To respond to this, Solderstar developed class leading instrumentation and software that streamline the whole profiling process across reflow, wave, selective and vapour phase soldering processes. Solderstar has grown from strength to strength, completely dedicated from the outset to the needs of the electronic manufacturer. Solderstar is committed to excellence in design, customer support and product innovation.
Today, Solderstar products undoubtedly have ‘raised the bar’ and will continue to set the standard through our commitment to continual improvement of our products, and our ability to combine powerful functionality with robustness, accuracy, and simplicity.
