BTU International, Inc., a leading supplier of advanced thermal processing equipment for the electronics manufacturing market, is pleased to announce that its Aurora 200N Reflow Oven has been honored with a 2025 Global Technology Award in the category of Soldering Equipment – Reflow. The award was presented during a ceremony at productronica in Munich, Germany, on Tuesday, November 18, 2025.
The Aurora 200N is BTU’s most advanced reflow oven to date—and the longest in the company’s history—offering 200 inches of heated length to support production line speeds up to 25% faster than previous models. Its extended configuration allows manufacturers to achieve high-throughput production goals while maintaining thermal process integrity. The modular design allows the oven to be shipped in two sections for simplified delivery and installation, without compromising performance.
“We designed the Aurora 200N to give manufacturers the speed and precision they’ve been asking for—without adding complexity,” said Rob DiMatteo, General Manager of BTU International. “Winning this award at productronica confirms that Aurora is hitting the mark, helping our customers build more efficiently and stay ahead of production demands.”
