BTU Combines Energy Pilot, RecipePro, and Industry 4.0 Solutions to Create Powerful Oven Control System

NORTH BILLERICA, Mass., July 16, 2016— BTU International, Inc., a leading supplier of advanced thermal processing equipment for the electronics manufacturing and alternative energy markets, is pleased to announce that it will exhibit in booth #1K30 at NEPCON South China, scheduled to take place August 30 to September 1, 2016, at the Shenzhen Convention & Exhibition Center. BTU will showcase components of its proprietary WINCON™ oven control software: RecipePro recipe generator software, jointly developed with Electronic Controls Design Inc. (ECD), and highlight the latest version of the Energy Pilot software and Industry 4.0 compliant solutions.
Integrating ECD’s recipe generator technology into BTU’s advanced reflow systems with RecipePro, offers manufacturers a streamlined and effective approach to initial recipe generation for higher yield results. The profiler will reduce non-productive time by streamlining the set-up process.
RecipePro is the only recipe generation tool in the industry to include convection rate in the recipe generator algorithm, pairing it perfectly with PYRAMAX™’s closed loop convection control. RecipePro is included with new PYRAMAX reflow ovens that are configured with convection control.
The Energy Pilot software saves manufacturers money whenever the oven is idle. Operation is fully automatic and results in an overall reduction in electrical, air and nitrogen consumption. The feature takes advantage of PYRAMAX’s superior response time allowing the oven to return to ready very quickly, not disrupting product flow.
Energy Pilot and RecipePro are features of BTU’s proprietary WINCON operating system and are available to existing PYRAMAX users by upgrading WINCON to the latest version.
