Kic Thermal Profiling 15950 Bernardo Center Drive Suite E San Diego, CA. 92127 Tel: 619-673-6050 fax: 619-673-0085 Works well with Windows based software. This works well for most all kinds of profiling of printed circuit assemblies across the wave or through the SMT reflow machines. I would highly recommend the Wave Solder Optimizer to track parameters on your wave solder machine. Parallelism, solder depth, preheat consistency, etc. Martin Ingle is the person I deal with.

Hope you get some good replies to your question to help in our evaluation also. *************************************************************************** * TechNet mail list is provided as a service by IPC using SmartList v3.05 * *************************************************************************** * To subscribe/unsubscribe send a message <to: [log in to unmask]> * * with <subject: subscribe/unsubscribe> and no text in the body. * *************************************************************************** * If you are having a problem with the IPC TechNet forum please contact * * Dmitriy Sklyar at 847-509-9700 ext. 311 or email at [log in to unmask] * *************************************************************************** *************************************************************************** * TechNet mail list is provided as a service by IPC using SmartList v3.05 * *************************************************************************** * To subscribe/unsubscribe send a message <to: [log in to unmask]> * * with <subject: subscribe/unsubscribe> and no text in the body. * *************************************************************************** * If you are having a problem with the IPC TechNet forum please contact * * Dmitriy Sklyar at 847-509-9700 ext. 311 or email at [log in to unmask] * ***************************************************************************
