What will an automatic reflow profiling system do for you?
- Full thermal process traceability
- Reduce scrap and rework via real-time thermal process dashboard and notification
- Improve production line utilization
- Faster defect troubleshooting
- Save engineering time with advanced data search and communication features for internal and external use
How does it work?
- RPI automatically acquires profile data in real-time from each product soldered in the reflow oven.
- The profile is compared to the relevant process window for traceability and for instant alarm on out of spec conditions.
- Basic SPC charts are automatically populated and warning levels set for Cpk level.
- The acquired data are continuously sent to the browser-based Vantage database residing on the factory LAN.
- The Vantage search and filter functions display relevant process data from any connected RPI system in the factory.
- Search on customer or product name, time period, select production line, etc. to instantly display the relevant data.
- Share your local URL with authorized personnel to facilitate clear communication where everyone is (literally) on the same page.
- Access all data from any authorized PC or mobile device anywhere.
- Connect the Vantage data to your MES to include your thermal product data in your factory software.
- Manage your thermal process windows for each production run from a central location.
