KIC showcases connected smart reflow at APEX

Jan 04, 2019

KIC will exhibit in Booth #1215 at the 2019 IPC APEX EXPO, scheduled to take place January 29-31, 2019 at the San Diego Convention Center in CA. Visit the KIC booth for a reflow profiling clinic for void reduction.

RPI i4.0, an easy built-in solution for automation, traceability, advanced reflow data collection and sharing for Smart Factory integration. KIC RPI i4.0 automatically acquires profile data from each PCB soldered in the reflow or curing oven, in real-time. This new ecosystem offers real-time thermal process dashboard and traceability, reduced scrap and rework, fast defect troubleshooting, lower electricity use and more. Advanced data search and communication features save engineers valuable time.

With RPI i4.0, all relevant data can connect to the factory MES or your factory data collection system to be easily shared with personnel and can be accessed from any authorized PC or mobile device. The enhanced level of automation delivers improved line utilization and productivity.

The SRA (Smart Reflow Analyzer) is a new-generation reflow and curing oven stability tool that will be discussed at the show.

KIC’s ecosystem offers solutions for reduction of downtime, faster reflow oven setup, automation and Smart Factory integration.


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.
