Rehm Thermal Systems: we’re about more than hot air!

Here at Rehm Thermal Systems, we express energy consumption values as realistically as possible under routine conditions – not as the lowest achievable figures. So, when we say you’re getting energy efficient heat transfer for the lowest cost of ownership, it’s not just hot air!

Energy efficiency = low cost of ownership

It’s that simple. And, as an international supplier to the photovoltaic and electronics industries, our VisionXP reflow system is optimised to deliver the very best levels of energy efficiency for complete reliability at the lowest cost of ownership.

When you partner with us, you can count on:

• Optimised heat transfer and precise profiling
• ‘Thermally invisible’ conveyor system
• Minimal waste heat with top quality insulation
• Constant Nitrogen Consumption
• Up to 50% less maintenance work with Pyrolysis

Remember, every system manufacturer promises low consumption values – but we’re one of the few that delivers this every time. You’ll find the proof on your bottom line.

Enhance your energy efficiency; unlock your cost of ownership advantage

Although every system manufacturer promises low consumption values, in most cases, manufacturer-specific data cannot be compared from one oven to the next. This is because data is calculated to make the system look good – with no concern for your yield and ongoing productivity. However, energy consumption data from Rehm Thermal Systems is measured under production conditions. So, when it comes to cost-of-ownership, you won’t be disappointed! Our VisionXP convection reflow soldering system is no exception.

…Energy efficient heat transfer for perfect profiling
Optimised heat profiling is critical to energy efficient soldering. For this reason, each heat zone is equipped with its own fan in our systems. Homogenous heat input is achieved thanks to short heat zones which also allow for precision adjustable temperature profiles. What’s more, all of our reflow soldering systems are equipped with uninterrupted heating at the bottom as well as the top to avoid one-sided overheating. This allows for lower temperature settings for a further energy saving. The result? A top quality, reliable solder joint.

…Ingenious Conveyor System
In addition to being returned outside the process zone, the centre support is ‘thermally invisible’. This means that no heat is carried over from one heat zone to the next at any point. The temperature profile is insensitive to interference and heat input is always homogenous, saving energy and boosting your cost-of-ownership even further.

…Minimal waste heat with top quality insulation
We use the highest quality insulating materials in order to efficiently insulate the entire process chamber. As a consequence, very little heat is released into the environment – an extremely important factor in terms of energy efficiency. You can rest assured that the energy used for your soldering process remains in the oven – rather than in the air around it!

…Constant nitrogen consumption
We know just how important it is that you keep the cost of ancillary materials and operating fluids down, which is why we’ve developed systems for monitoring and reducing nitrogen consumption. You have two options here – air doping or nitrogen control. In the case of air doping, nitrogen is constantly fed into the process chamber and contaminated with oxygen. With nitrogen control, the desired ppm level is held constant through continuously measuring the residual oxygen value by feeding nitrogen into the process chamber. Resulting in variable nitrogen consumption, nitrogen can then be saved by setting the corresponding parameters.

…Up to 50% less maintenance work with Pyrolysis
VisionXP takes advantage of our pioneering residue management technology to reduce maintenance cost by up to 50%. Pyrolysis features in both preheating and peak zones, along with cold condensation in the cooling zone, to dramatically reduce liquid and crystalline residues. Very little energy is required to purify the process gas, because heat is returned directly to the process without energy intensive cooling. The short distance from process gas purification to injection into the process chamber results in minimal heat loss and thus, greater energy efficiency.
