BTU International recently showcased its RecipePro recipe generator software, jointly developed with Electronic Controls Design (ECD), as well as highlighted the latest version of the Energy Pilot software and Industry 4.0 compliant solutions.
RecipePro is a recipe generation tool that includes convection rate in the recipe generator algorithm, pairing it perfectly with Pyramax’s closed-loop convection control. The integration of ECD’s recipe generator technology into BTU’s advanced reflow systems 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 setup process. 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. Standby mode can save more than 25%, while sleep mode can be used for longer interruptions to save more than 40%. Long idle periods fully shut down the oven using hibernate mode. Recovery times are minimised using remote product sensors and SMEMA. Operation is fully automatic and results in an overall reduction in electrical, air and nitrogen consumption. The feature takes advantage of the 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.
