Tips and Resources for Electronics Manufacturing by ECD
Industry measurement innovator ECD is pleased to share several educational topics and helpful resources for thermal profiling, reflow continuous monitoring and component storage.
COST OF PROFILING ACCURACY
Accuracy = Profitability. Is your thermal profiler operating at 100% accuracy? If not, it could be costing you. Calibrating instruments on a regular basis helps optimize manufacturing processes to minimize production downtime, ensure product quality, and secure plant reliability. Calibration should be part of your ongoing maintenance routines. Want to know if your thermal profiler is in spec? Try our free calculator to measure yours.
Measure in-transit boards in real-time, tracking each PCB’s journey and oven response through the reflow process. This is dramatically different and far more effective than conventional systems that simply measure board data at the beginning and end of a run and make assumptions about their temperature exposure.
ECD has developed a free thermal profiling course to help you better address your manufacturing needs and ensure you are equipped with the right tools for efficiency and high-yield results.
Controlling the reflow soldering process requires monitoring more than temperature. Heat flow can have a profound influence on the product's thermal profile.
A simple alternative to conventional “golden board” profiling offers quality assurance and repeatability for high-mix, low-volume manufacturing operations.
Founded in 1964, ECD recognized worldwide for its expertise in thermal monitoring and analysis technology and, more recently, for its innovation in intelligent dry storage systems.
