KIC: #1 solution for turning<br />
heat into data<br />
Is it smart manufacturing if you skip<br />
reflow data collection, one of the key<br />
elements of the assembly? Are you<br />
covering all your inspection data<br />
requirements; SPI, RPI (Reflow Process<br />
Inspection), AOI?<br />
The growth of Industry 4.0 has stimulated<br />
an immense amount of activity in electronics<br />
manufacturing. Process transparency,<br />
traceability, predictive technologies, embedded<br />
sensing, edge computing are commonplace<br />
topics. The key is to make sure<br />
you have actionable data across the manufacturing<br />
line to make well informed decisions.<br />
There is data collection on most machines<br />
and in addition inspection results possible<br />
after printing with SPI, after placement<br />
with AOI, and at the end of the line with AOI.<br />
But what about reflow? Now you can have<br />
complete inspection process information by<br />
including Reflow Process Inspection, RPI.<br />
With RPI i4.0, KIC has introduced the next<br />
level of inspection, on the reflow process.<br />
Knowing that your production reflow temperature<br />
profile is inspected and monitored<br />
to maintain process control, traceability,<br />
and quality solder joints for every product<br />
Heat to Data with RPI – REFLOW PROCESS INSPECTION<br />
run through your oven is a must. This critical<br />
data should be a part of your overall Industry<br />
4.0 smart factory solution to insure<br />
all production through the oven is within<br />
specifications and that profile data is readily<br />
available for each individual board. A<br />
simple solution and a great way to start<br />
your Industry 4.0 journey, changing heat to<br />
data on your reflow oven, with RPI i4.0. KIC<br />
