Altus to Feature Rehm’s Innovative Systems at productronica
November 7, 2019 | Altus GroupEstimated reading time: 1 minute
With many of its pre-eminent suppliers exhibiting at productronica, Altus Group, will be supporting their partners by introducing customers to the latest innovations, including Rehm Thermal Systems’ bespoke solutions and systems.
The Altus team will be on hand at their stand Hall A2 booth 144 to offer invaluable advice and support for visitors during the exhibition and introduce their customers to the most novel equipment available to the industry.
“Having our own stand allows us to discuss specific requirements and introduce customers to the equipment at our principles’ stands so they could see exactly how it would benefit them in their production process,” said Matthew Jones, Altus Sales Director.
“Rehm will be demonstrating its latest systems including VisionXP+ which we have seen a lot of interest in since it was introduced. VisionXP+ convection soldering system represents the highest in quality and flexibility with an outstanding throughput rate. On the Rehm stand they will be presenting highlights of the continuing development of the VisionXP+. These include the EC fan motors that make the system both quieter and more sustainable, and a new chamber design which reduces N2 consumption. There is also a newly developed cooling line and a number of software analysis tools. All of these new additions will be showcased on the Rehm stand.
“We are looking forward to meeting our existing customers, and prospective clients at productronica and demonstrating the capabilities of the varied products within our portfolio.”
Also on the Rehm stand will be CondensoXS smart which features a process chamber delivering the highest process reliability within a small footprint. The new chamber design ensures the optimum hermetical seal ensuing reliable and reproducible results. This modified opening mechanism has greatly improved both the dependability and the service life of the system.
To find out more about Rehm’s latest products and Altus’ other principle suppliers visit Hall A2 Stand 144 at productronica from 12-15 November.

Overview of Soldering Systems With Vacuum
12/18/2024 | Dr. Paul Wild, Rehm Thermal Systems GmbHWhen soldering electronic assemblies, the focus of the vacuum application is on the removal of volatile substances from the solder joints and the associated reduction of pore formation. Particularly in the thermal management of power electronics components, pores can cause so-called hotspots with higher temperatures due to their poor heat conduction. These hotspots can lead to overheating of the components on the one hand and to thermally induced destruction of the solder structure on the other.
I-Connect007 Editor’s Choice: Five Must-Reads for the Week
12/13/2024 | Andy Shaughnessy, I-Connect007This week, Peter Tranitz discusses the upcoming Pan-European Electronics Design Conference, set for Jan. 29-30 in Vienna, Austria. Pete Starkey brings us a review of the most recent EIPC Technical Snapshot webinar, which featured a global PCB maker update by Dr. Hayao Nakahara. Don't miss our interview with Manfred Huschka, who explains how companies can begin their own China Plus One plan. Stan Farnsworth breaks down photonic soldering and discusses its use in soldering materials that are not typically compatible. I also enjoyed Dan Beaulieu’s discussion on the value of consistency, and why just showing up for work is half the battle, especially in an inconsistent, evolving industry like ours.
Advancing Photonic Soldering
12/11/2024 | Nolan Johnson, SMT007 MagazineStan Farnsworth, director of customer satisfaction at PulseForge, discusses the advancements in photonic soldering that highlight its energy efficiency and versatility. Over the past two years, the company has refined its applications for flexible substrates and energy reduction, finding that photonic soldering allows the processing of materials that typically aren’t thermally compatible and offers significant energy savings compared to traditional methods.
