Rehm to Demo Innovative Equipment at NEPCON Shanghai
March 26, 2018 | Rehm Thermal SystemsEstimated reading time: 1 minute

Rehm Thermal Systems will once again be represented at NEPCON Shanghai, the leading trade fair for the Asian electronics manufacturing market. The latest systems engineering, innovative software solutions and competent process consulting await you from April 24-26, 2018 at our stand 1F20.
We will present the following at NEPCON Shanghai:
VisionXP+ Vac: The 2-in-1 solution for convection reflow soldering
The VisionXP+ convection soldering system combines various advances in technology, particularly with regard to energy efficiency optimisation and emissions reduction. It allows customers to reduce energy use in electronics manufacture by up to 20% and consumes on average 10 tonnes less CO2 per year. For the first time ever, the vacuum option makes it possible for convection soldering to take place with or without a vacuum – in one system! The VisionXP+ Vac reliably removes gas cavities and voids during the soldering process, while the solder is still in its optimum molten state. With a vacuum pressure of up to 2 mbar, void rates of less than 2% can be achieved.
CondensoXC: Compact structure – huge performance
The CondensoXC, designed for reliable condensation soldering, has a compact structure thanks to its innovative processing chamber. And it performs in a big way. With its patented injection principle, the exact amount of Galden® required is added to the process for optimal profiling. The closed-loop filter system allows almost 100% of the medium to be regained and filtered. The system is completely suitable for vacuums and has an integrated process recorder for maximum traceability.
ViCON: Smarter Software for more efficiency
Rehm has developed with ViCON an innovative solution for easy operability and optimal traceability in the VisionX series. The software can, for example, monitor all values that have changed, or collect and statistically evaluate alarms in order to avoid errors and to optimize machine settings.
