KIC’s new profiler kit will be highlighted in booth 5511 at the upcoming AT Expo in Rosemont, IL. 
 
The kit includes: SlimKIC 2000 profiler with 9 or 12 thermocouple (TC) inputs, Auto-Focus oven recipe search engine, metal shield, TCs rated to 400°C and aluminum tape. The kit enables manufacturers to set up and manage their lead-free thermal processes. 
 
The new metal thermal shield offers better thermal protection while keeping the slim physical dimension of the “cool touch” shield. Some manufacturers process their parts in an inert atmosphere, requiring a tighter tunnel height. A low height thermal shield becomes imperative for such applications. Auto-Focus automatically recommends the appropriate oven recipe for any lead-free application before even running a profile. It also enables quick oven setup and allows manufacturers to optimize their thermal process along three dimensions: center of the process window for the most stable process; fastest throughput; and quickest oven changeover.
