ECD Technology Brings Intuitive Process Control to Dynamic India Manufacturing Sector as Geographic Production Shifts Continue
Thermal Profiler Pioneer to Showcase Timesaving M.O.L.E.® EV Touchscreen Portfolio at Productronica India 2024.
August 27, 2024 – ECD and its partner Maxim SMT Technologies today announced plans to showcase the latest soldering process control technology from stand H15.E15 at Productronica India 2024 to be held at the India Expo Mart ( IEML ), Greater Noida, India from September 11-13, 2024. The electronics manufacturing sector in India has seen rapid growth in recent years as significant investment accelerates and numerous multinationals continue shifting production capacity to the region. Ensuring operators are adequately trained and production processes refined will be challenging given the pace of growth. As new sites scale up to meet demand, tools like ECD’s soldering control portfolio can play a key role in improving productivity, reducing operator training requirements, and ensuring high-quality yields.
ECD’s latest innovation, the M.O.L.E.® EV touchscreen thermal profiler platform, allows reflow soldering profile viewing on the production line. This capability saves time, simplifies profiling routines, and helps operators at all skill levels perform vital product profiling tasks with confidence and ease. Available in 6-, 12-, and 20-channel models, M.O.L.E. EV delivers handheld, lineside access to calculation templates, KPI tables, thermal profiles, and pass/fail results. Eliminating the requirement for offline PC viewing allows corrective actions to be managed immediately, improving productivity and ensuring timely quality outputs. The six-channel M.O.L.E. EV6 also integrates with ECD’s machine quality management pallets – OvenRIDER®, WaveRIDER®, and SelectiveRIDER® — to verify soldering equipment performance. These technologies, along with ECD’s V-M.O.L.E. 2 four-channel thermal profiler, will be demonstrated at Maxim SMT stand H15.E15 during Productronica India 2024.
“India’s expanding electronics manufacturing sector is a promising and exciting development,” says Mark Waterman, ECD Electronics Division Manager. “The soldering process is where defects often surface, so ensuring tight process control and leveraging operator-friendly tools can dramatically improve quality and yield. We look forward to sharing the latest profiling technology with electronics manufacturers serving the Indian market.”
