EVS International’s new-generation EVS 1000 solder recovery system features all of the recovery performance of the company’s standard and lead-free solder units, but in a smaller size and footprint that helps to reduce cost and carbon footprint, while still providing a capacity of 5 kg of dross.
The machine can convert waste dross into pure solder in minutes, while improving the wave solder machine process. This provides a cleaner wave with less maintenance, less downtime and a significant reduction in rework, shorts and bridging, as well as the potential to discontinue the use of messy wave oils and/or dross reduction powders. Additionally, the EVS 1000 is designed to enhance ISO-14001 and helps gain or retain this prestigious management standard.
The system is aimed at small- to medium-volume users who typically have one to three wave solder machines and who must regularly dedross or use nitrogen to reduce drossing. By using the machine, EVS claims nitrogen use can be dramatically reduced or eliminated, resulting in significant cost savings.
