Mar 29, 2018

KIC announces plans to exhibit at the SMTA Dallas Expo & Tech Forum, scheduled to take place Tuesday, April 10, 2018 at the Plano Centre in Plano, TX. The retrofittable starter kit has all of the elements of the smart factory concept as it relates to the reflow and curing ovens:

  • Machine optimization software
  • Process transparency

  • Extreme Automation

  • Flexible production (eliminate changeover time)

  • Connectivity

  • Machine learning

  • Real-time information and insight

  • Reduced electricity use

Smart factories promise a leap forward in terms of productivity and control. The technology delivers consistent quality, significant lower production cost, traceability and customer value.

Begin the road to a Smart Factory implementation with a low investment / low risk / narrow focus starter kit. You will advance up the smart factory learning curve which positions you well to take on the rest of the factory.

The KIC Smart Factory Starter kit for contains:

1 ea. The all-new KIC SPS 7 channel real-time Wi-Fi reflow Profiler

1 ea. KIC RPI (Reflow Process Inspection) or ProBot automatic systems

1 ea. The all-new KIC Vantage network insight factory software

(On-site visit by a KIC certified technician is included)

Move toward the future of line connectivity, flexible production, data analytics, process transparency, machine learning and real-time insight. For more information about KIC, stop by our table or visit www.kicthermal.com.


Based in San Diego, KIC is the industry leader in automated thermal process tools and systems for reflow, wave, curing and semiconductor thermal processes. The company pioneered the development of oven profilers and process optimization tools, and then worked to create the next generation of thermal systems to help manufacturers improve the thermal process quality while reducing cost.

KIC products include the KIC SPS, K2, X5, KICstart2, ProBot, 24/7 Wave and the KIC RPI. With the introduction of cutting edge tools, the company continues to stay on the leading edge of process optimization and automatic thermal process systems, and has won numerous industry awards.
