The i-CON NANO MK2 offers an array of impressive features, including three fixed temperatures or adjustable settings from 150 to 450 °C, settable energy levels, automatic standby and shutdown modes to conserve energy and extend tip life, and an antistatic design. With parameter settings accessible through PC software and microSD card, this soldering station combines efficiency and user-friendly customization.
The spotlight also will be on Kurtz Ersa's groundbreaking i-CON TRACE soldering station – an industry game-changer in the realm of industrial soldering. The i-CON TRACE introduces complete process control to manual soldering straight out-of-the-box, marking a significant leap in soldering technology.
Designed for seamless integration into digitally connected environments, i-CON TRACE leverages existing I/O devices within the company network, such as PCs, tablets, and smartphones, for essential settings. With the option to interface with the customer's MES through a suitable interface, this innovation provides simultaneous access to all soldering stations in the network, elevating convenience and operational efficiency.
