EVS International is pleased to announce that it received a 2021 Mexico Technology Award in the category of Metal Waste & Dross Recycling for its EVS18KLF Solder Recovery System. The award was announced during a ceremony that took place Wednesday, Nov. 3, 2021 during SMTA International in Minneapolis, MN.
The EVS 18KLF features a totally sealed cabinet, enclosing the dross bucket and fume extraction. The revolutionary Tilting Pot Mechanism allows the engineers to dispense with the space consuming twin opposed air rams and door. Inverting and rotating dross / solder pot and a novel hot air activated auto drain tap creates the solder ingots.
Simon G. Norman, Business Director, commented: “As we approach our 20th year of saving customers money with their solder purchases, it is always humbling to be recognized by the industry. As we come out of the pandemic, we look forward to launching this new innovative product.”
The EVS 18KLF has a larger 18kilo/40lbs pot allowing customers to recover more dross and giving a faster ROI. The new patented technology gives a clean ingot bar as it filters the solder through gauze and the recovery rate is very high achieving up to 80 percent solder from the dross.
EVS has continually improved the performance of the EVS units and the new EVS 18KLF is no exception. The solder recovery system has a touch screen display, and like all EVS systems, is totally automatic. The simple but ruggedly designed unit is highly ISO14001 compatible as it lives by the ISO mantra of reduce – reuse – recycle.
The Mexico Technology Awards acknowledge the latest innovations available in Mexico produced by OEM manufacturing equipment and materials suppliers during the last 12 months. For more information, visit www.mexicoems.com/mta-awards.
