BTU to Showcase Pyramax at SMTA Ohio August 7
July 14, 2016 | BTU International, Inc.Estimated reading time: 1 minute
BTU International, Inc. will exhibit at the SMTA Ohio Expo & Tech Forum on Thursday, August 4, 2016 at the Embassy Suites Cleveland Rockside in Cleveland, Ohio. BTU will showcase its RecipePro recipe generator software, jointly developed with Electronic Controls Design Inc. (ECD), and will highlight the latest version of the Energy Pilot software and Industry 4.0 compliant solutions – all components of BTU’s proprietary WINCON oven control software.
RecipePro is the only recipe generation tool in the industry to include convection rate in the recipe generator algorithm, pairing it perfectly with Pyramax’s closed loop convection control. RecipePro is included with new Pyramax reflow ovens that are configured with convection control.
Integrating ECD’s recipe generator technology into BTU’s advanced reflow systems with RecipePro, offers manufacturers a streamlined and effective approach to initial recipe generation for higher yield results. The profiler will reduce non-productive time by streamlining the set-up process.
The Energy Pilot software saves manufacturers money whenever the oven is idle. Operation is fully automatic and results in an overall reduction in electrical, air and nitrogen consumption. The feature takes advantage of the Pyramax’s superior response time allowing the oven to return to ready very quickly, not disrupting product flow.
Energy Pilot and RecipePro are features of BTU’s proprietary WINCON operating system and are available to existing Pyramax users by upgrading WINCON to the latest version.
