Know the Past… Predict the future. |
The wave soldering process is one of the most challenging procedures to set up. The ECD WaveRIDER® NL 2 greatly simplifies wave solder set up and ensures perfect repeatability, time after time. Board recipe preheat temperatures, conveyor speed, wave height, contact times and parallelism are all measured and monitored using the WaveRIDER® NL 2 process pallet.
Your company may have lost thru-hole soldering expertise over time through attrition. A WaveRIDER kit has much of this intelligence built-in and will help you exceed quality demands and reduce rework headaches the first week you begin using it. Start now by downloading the Expert's Guide to Wave Soldering and begin troubleshooting your Wave Soldering process with Expert Guidance…then take the next step to Quality Assurance with your own WaveRIDER® NL 2.

| FEATURES |
- Tune your Wave Solder Machine and keep it production worthy
- Quantifies Machine parameters so that you can control them
- Helps reduce rework to a minimum to improve your bottom line
- Provides Go/No-Go data to operators as a First-Off tool
- Eliminates guessing and tightens maintenance protocol too
- Use as a tool for selling your manufacturing expertise to new accounts
- SPC tells you when a parameter gets out of Spec before it's out of control
- Key Parameters: Preheat Ramp, Delta T at Wave, Solder Temperature, Top & Bottom side Board Temperature, Immersion Depth, Wave Parallelism, Conveyor Speed
- Add a Fluxometer® to tune the Spray Fluxer for proper top side fillet formation

| BENEFITS |
- Helps maximize yields to improve your bottom line
- Provides proof to customers that Thru-Hole soldering is in control
- Profiles the machine w/o attaching thermocouples – saves time and effort
- Control machine stability with a stable test fixture instead of a Golden Board
- Replaceable polyimide Test Coupon extends the life of the product
- Solder wave dwell times and conveyor speed are watched, not just temperatures
- It's like an electronic Glass Plate – with memory… and it predicts the future!
