Focused infrared heating.

150W focused, adjustable, visible infrared delivers precise energy exactly where it is needed.

Independent temperature control.

Board and component temperatures are managed separately, for full control of the procedure.

ThermoActive software.

Automatic profiling keeps every thermal procedure controlled and repeatable.

Focused Infrared heating

Adjustable, visible energy directed to the target area.

Live ThermoActive profile

The component and PCB heating profile is visible throughout the process.

Controlled component removal

The dedicated Chipmate removal procedure, cut around the actual pickup movement.

Stable board support

The adjustable workholder positions the PCB over the preheater.

System capability

Built for a controlled procedure.

PCB preheater.

2800W three-zone medium-wave quartz infrared gives controlled, even thermal conditioning from below.

PCB workholder.

Adjustable support positions the board securely and prevents warping.
