Efficient Preheating, Fluxing & Conveying

The 16.350 ensures consistent soldering with convection preheating, precision fluxing, and reliable board handling.

  • Forced hot air convection: uniform preheating without IR drawbacks
  • 23.6" (600 mm) preheat zone: consistent thermal conditioning
  • Pauseable conveyor: added process flexibility
  • Spray fluxer (Y-axis): even, controlled flux application
  • Titanium finger conveyor: durable and low maintenance
  • Variable speed: 500–2200 mm/min for throughput control
  • Auto finger cleaning: reduces buildup and maintenance

An optional center support rail prevents sagging on larger PCBs.

Flexible Dual or Single Wave Operation

The system supports both dual-wave and single-wave soldering for maximum process flexibility.

  • Chip wave: turbulent flow eliminates skips
  • Main wave: smooth drainage prevents bridging
  • Single-wave mode: disable chip wave for through-hole only
  • Adjustable wave angle: fine-tunes solder flow
  • Improved wetting: reduces defects like icicles and bridging

This configuration ensures optimal results across mixed-technology and complex PCB designs.

Quick-Connect Solder Pot for Fast Changeovers

The quick-connect secondary solder pot enables fast transitions between leaded and lead-free processes.

  • 440 lb (200 kg) capacity: supports high-volume production
  • Up to 300°C: fully lead-free capable
  • Quick-change design: minimizes downtime
  • Roll-out pot: easy maintenance and cleaning
  • Level alarm: prevents interruptions and defects

This design improves flexibility and reliability in high-mix environments.

Optional Inlet & Unload Conveyors

Optional loader and unloader systems improve workflow and production efficiency.

  • Inlet conveyor (WL-100M-L1): smooth, controlled board feeding
  • Supports up to 350 mm: wide PCB compatibility
  • Adjustable speed, angle, height: flexible integration
  • Unload conveyor (WU-120M-H1): safe post-solder handling
  • Heat-resistant belt: secure transfer of assemblies
  • Adjustable speed: 500–800 mm/min output control

These systems enable smoother transitions between operators and downstream equipment.
