A new dimension in process automation with Advanced Process Control

With Advanced Process Control and Advanced Process Monitoring, IBL Löttechnik is setting new standards: intuitive profile control, seamless monitoring and the highest soldering quality for demanding industries.

With its innovative Advanced Process Control (APC), IBL Löttechnik GmbH is setting new standards in vapour phase soldering technology. Users benefit from maximum process reliability, efficiency and transparency with less operating effort. This avoids sources of error and sustainably increases productivity.

Automatic Gradient Control (AGC) is at the heart of the new control system. Temperature profiles can be set intuitively without complicated programming. Real gradients and holding times can be entered directly - for precise, reproducible soldering results of the highest quality, regardless of the complexity of the assembly or the experience of the operating personnel.

 

Your advantages at a glance:

  • intuitive operation: temperature settings without complex calculations
  • maximum process reliability: Precise profile control for perfect solder joints
  • increased efficiency: faster set-up, fewer rejects, optimum quality from the first run
  • flexibility: gradients can be adapted precisely to individual requirements

Seamless monitoring with Advanced Process Monitoring

In combination with the Advanced Process Monitoring (APM) function, users receive 24/7 process monitoring of all relevant parameters in IBL vapour phase soldering systems. The precise recording, analysis and documentation guarantees the highest soldering quality, complete traceability and enables the early detection and avoidance of production errors.

Industries such as automotive, aerospace and medical technology in particular benefit from this seamless monitoring. It meets the requirements for certification in accordance with common standards (e.g. IPC, ISO) and ensures that every production run is carried out under identical conditions. Deviations in preheating time, soldering time or vacuum pressure are detected immediately so that corrective measures can be initiated and series errors avoided.

With Advanced Process Control and Advanced Process Monitoring, IBL offers a powerful combination of intuitive operation, maximum process reliability and complete traceability, thus creating the basis for maximum quality and productivity in electronics production.
