Manual Vision Placement
The Bandit includes a manual component-placement arm with a final precision touchdown stage. Micrometer alignment controls help the operator position components accurately before beginning the reflow cycle.
Coupled PID Profile Controllers
Separate microprocessor controllers coordinate the top reflow heater and bottom preheater. Integrated digital timers and closed-loop sensing provide programmable soak and ramp control without requiring an external computer.
Repeatable Thermal Performance
The digital closed-loop system is designed for repeatability within 2% of the selected temperature set point. Operators can display and program temperatures in either Fahrenheit or Celsius.
Flexible Board Handling
The system supports circuit boards up to 14 × 16 inches. A freestanding 8 × 12-inch frame board holder with a Teflon-coated base allows convenient positioning around the rework area.
