The EVS 3000 and EVS 6000 systems are part of the EVS Series.
Offering capacities of 10 kg/20 lbs (EVS 3000) up to 20 kg/44 lbs (EVS 6000), the machines have (in most cases) the facility for single operation dedrossing of even large wave soldering machines. Large integrated hopper makes rapid transfer of dross simpler and safer, and reportedly speeds dedrossing times by up to 50%.
In the enclosed automated system, hot dross is loaded into the large hopper and sealed into the machine. The process recovers the solder into a solder tray in the form of ingots that are easily placed back into the solder pot and deposits the spent dross automatically through a chute to a covered dross bin. Air is extracted via a standalone, four-part filtration system.
A Hopper Extraction System prevents the escape of any fumes and dust that may be generated when loading. An automatic air-knife cools the molten solder ingots until they are safe to handle. Premature removal of the ingot tray is prevented by a safety lock. Handling and moving of dross is reduced to a minimum as it is contained until it is automatically ejected into the dross bucket.
Safety features are built into the machine to protect against misuse and abuse.
