The Economy SIG is EPM’s compact wave soldering solution, designed to bring professional-grade soldering capabilities to small and medium-scale electronics producers. It inherits the core quality and efficiency of EPM’s larger systems, but in a more accessible package. This solution offers all the advantages of larger systems and supports, among other things, traceability, low maintenance requirements, and low consumption data.
Key specifications and design include:
• Wave solder bath capacity: 390–650 kg (depending on configuration).
• Footprint: 3 480 x 935/1035 x 880 mm.
• Net weight: approximately 550 kg (no solder).
• Nitrogen: optional hood; consumption 6 m³/h, based on production needs.
• Construction: stainless steel housing ensures durability and RoHS compliance.
The unit’s low consumption of solder, power, air, and optional nitrogen significantly reduces running costs. It is ideal for use in small to medium series soldering tasks in sectors like automotive, medical, and consumer electronics.
