November 30, 2015 | SolderStarEstimated reading time: 2 minutes
Following the seminar, visitors were given a factory tour where live examples could be viewed including SolderStar’s pioneering Automatic Profiling System (APS), a full time system for profiling each and every PCB soldered in a convection reflow oven.
Currently being used on an Ersa reflow oven at the technology centre, APS allows 100% traceability, the message that SolderStar were drilling down on in the seminar. The newest addition to the portfolio, SMARTLine, was also discussed as part of the importance for profiling.
About SMARTLine
SMARTLine, an innovative’ big data’ capture system, utilises internet based technologies to capture information from reflow ovens for Industry 4.0 projects and trials. Manufacturing is driving towards a SMART factory process to encourage productivity, profitability and flexibility. SMARTLine works as part of the Industry 4.0 ideal where information can be captured across the whole manufacturing process, making condition monitoring and fault diagnosis easily detected. The longer term goal of self-predicting algorithms can also be used to foresee problems before they occur. This provides a company with the ability to understand and have more of an insight into its manufacturing status.
