Vapor phase reflow soldering of smt assemblies has many advantages. The control and repeatability are unbeatable. The solder joints are shiny and clean, they take up much less space than a convection reflow oven. It is impossible to burn your PCB’s or subject them to more heat than you intend to.

Vapor phase ovens about 60% less power than an average convection reflow oven. The machine itself doesn’t get hot. The fluid vapour is inert so you are always soldering in an inert atmosphere. Vapor phase has come a long way since the early days of SMT. If you have problems with reflowing boards in the conventional way, vapour phase is most likely to be the solution.

I’m delighted to announce that we at Blundell Production Equipment have been appointed as the new UK distributor for IBL, the world leading manufacturer of Vapor Phase reflow soldering systems.

We have acquired this premier distribution line from A & D Automation, who have been representing IBL in the UK and Ireland for the past 10 years and who have sold over 20 systems in that time. We will also be taking over the service and support of the existing installations.

Vapor Phase solves many of the problems that can be associated with standard convection reflow, especially on high mass PCB’s. IBL have several patents associated with Vapor Phase technology, and their systems are acknowledged worldwide as being amongst the leaders in innovation and technical expertise.

We very much look forward to working with IBL to develop and expand the market for Vapor Phase systems in the UK.
