KIC Press Release February 16, 2009 - KIC to Showcase KIC Explorer Thermal Profiler In Istanbul at World of Industry Exhibition-WIN 2009

(San Diego, CA -- February 16, 2009) : KIC, the leader of thermal process development and control products and winner of multiple industry awards, announce they will showcase KIC Explorer, the latest generation of thermal profiler at the World of Industry Exhibition – WIN, on the 26th February to 1st March 2009.

KIC will exhibit with partner 3S Technologies Electronics&Automation in booth 210, hall 7 of the Tüyap Fair Convention and Congress Center in Istanbul. The event attracted in excess of 120,000 visitors in 2008, from Turkey and around the globe, and will provide an unprecedented opportunity for 2009 visitors to see this new generation of thermal profiler in action. Featuring an impressively compact design, KIC Explorer moves with ease through the restrictive process dimensions encountered in today‘s thermal applications.

RoHS compliant, KIC Explorer is available in 7, 9 and 12 TC channels and includes KIC‘s award-winning and easy-to-use graphics software. The powerful software options offer a solution for creating an accurate profile for both standard and lead-free processes, including even the most challenging boards where separate process windows must be established for individual components, solder paste and PCBs.

Supported by KIC‘s distinguished reputation for reliability, KIC Explorer incorporates state-of-the-art SMT technology and high-temperature rated components. This new product offers the dependability imperative to today‘s manufacturers, in an innovative and rugged package designed to endure the harsh conditions of real-world factory use. It provides all the thermal profile data required, with the highest sampling rate available, as well as greater memory capacity and superior data precision. The thermal profile data is then conveniently transferred to your computer via a simple USB connection.

In a competitive global marketplace manufacturers rely on highly effective, automated solutions to assist them in their quest for quality, without compromising on the speed or accuracy of their production process. As market leader in the supply of thermal profile solutions, KIC‘s hardware and software is there to support quality management, providing full traceability documentation which will in turn improve productivity, as well as provide unmatched performance, flexibility and miniaturization.
