ECD to Showcase Market’s First Touchscreen Thermal Profiler, Highlight Top Reflow Monitoring Solution at SMTconnect 2023

M.O.L.E.® EV6 Delivers Factory Floor Handheld Thermal Profiling Control, Pairs Perfectly with OvenSENTINEL® Reflow Monitoring.

April 25, 2023 – Following a highly-successful Americas launch earlier this year, ECD today announced that its revolutionary M.O.L.E.® EV6 thermal profiler will be shown live in Europe for the first time during the upcoming SMTconnect 2023 event in Nuremberg, Germany. As the market’s only traveling thermal profiler with full color touchscreen control, M.O.L.E. EV6 frees personnel from the PC, as profile data can be viewed directly on the device. This time-saving solution complements ECD’s award-winning OvenSENTINEL® reflow monitoring system, which will also be demonstrated at SMTconnect from booth #4-317. As electronics manufacturers look to improve productivity and automate process insight, OvenSENTINEL has seen a doubling of installations year-on-year. When paired, M.O.L.E. EV6 and OvenSENTINEL deliver an unparalleled solution to setting, maintaining, and verifying reflow process parameters for advanced PCB assemblies.

Mike Hayward, ECD EMEA Director of Operations, notes that all ECD’s process control tools – especially M.O.L.E. EV6 and OvenSENTINEL – embody the theme of this year’s SMTconnect event: ‘Driving manufacturing forward’. “M.O.L.E. EV6 marks the most significant development in thermal profiler technology in ten years,” he explains. “Touchscreen control is long overdue in the profiling arena, and we are proud to be the first to bring it to market. Now, users can view and interact with process calculation templates, view profiles, and see pass/fail analysis in the palm of their hand. This simplifies the profiling process, raises productivity, reduces errors, and allows on-the-fly decision-making. Likewise, OvenSENTINEL offers dynamic and customizable real-time monitoring of the reflow process, taking the burden off operators while delivering deep data-supported product traceability – all in an open communications protocol.”

The feature sets of both systems are impressive, with highlights including:

M.O.L.E. EV6:

  • Instrument status display with live temperature readings
  • USB-C communications and charging
  • Wireless capability via Bluetooth
  • Compatible with multiple thermocouple types
  • No PC downloads required; all data displayed on-screen, on the device
  • Built-in calibration reminders for maintenance simplicity
  • Seamlessly integrates with all RIDER™ verification tools: OvenCHECKER™, WaveRIDER® NL 2, and SelectiveRIDER® for a complete, multi-process, soldering machine verification system

OvenSENTINEL:

  • Dynamic measurement capabilities with customizable data extractions and sensor types
  • Open architecture, Industry 4.0-enabling
  • Interface supports multiple lanes, ovens, and factories
  • Profile SnapShot™ one-button, on-demand profile confirmation of oven readiness and KPI alignment
  • TrueProfile™ trusted traceability technology

Both M.O.L.E. EV6 and OvenSENTINEL will be displayed in booth #4-317 throughout the three-day SMTconnect exhibition, May 9 – 11. To learn more, visit www.ecd.com or email mike.hayward@ecd.com.

ECD to Unveil Reimagined Profiling Technology, Highlight Success of Process Control Portfolio at IPC APEX Expo 2023

Novel Thermal Profiling Capability Set to Improve Data Access; Continuous Reflow Monitoring, Machine Quality Management and Dry Storage Systems Enjoy Market Expansion

December 1, 2022 – ECD, pioneer of the traveling thermal profiler, will debut a brand-new data logging technology from booth #2425 at IPC APEX EXPO 2023 in San Diego, California next month. The novel innovation is designed to accelerate productivity through immediate access to profile statistics for fast decision-making through real-time actionable data. With on-demand demonstrations planned throughout the event, IPC APEX EXPO show delegates can experience ECD’s latest engineering advance first-hand.

In addition to new technology, ECD’s proven tools for high-value PCB assemblies will be on show. As automotive systems, data center server boards and 5G infrastructure technologies increase in complexity and soldering becomes more challenging, manufacturers are looking to solutions like OvenSENTINEL® continuous reflow monitoring and the MEGAM.O.L.E.™ 20 high-channel-count thermal profiler for robust soldering control to enable high-yield production of high-reliability assemblies. Due to the growth in electric vehicle (EV) volumes, data center capacity, and 5G infrastructure devices, sales of OvenSENTINEL have more than doubled in the last year alone. MEGAM.O.L.E. 20 has likewise experienced notable increases in order volumes. This demand for quality and the assurance of robust equipment operation has also driven steady adoption of ECD’s suite of RIDER™ pallets for machine quality management of wave, reflow and selective soldering systems. All three pallet designs integrate with the SuperM.O.L.E. Gold 2 thermal profiler for a scalable platform approach to shop floor soldering oversight.

Finally, for industries — including electronics — where control of moisture is integral to product quality, ECD’s award-winning SmartDRY® Intelligent Dry Storage portfolio is enabling exceptional humidity control. With an ultra-fast recovery time of less than three minutes, SmartDRY combines effective dry storage with the ability to access parts frequently for maximum productivity and product integrity assurance. SmartDRY’s unique features and proven performance have allowed it to maintain its leading market share in electronics manufacturing, while expanding into other markets such as 3D printing material storage, medical instrumentation, and filtration. The SmartDRY SD-30 will be on show at ECD booth #2425.
