The Electrovert® VectraElite™ system is the ideal wave soldering solution for medium-to-high mass board assemblies in a soldering environment that requires fast changeover, process flexibility, and system reliability. The VectraElite combines innovative technology in an accessible, ergonomic platform and provides the technologies necessary to achieve a zero-defect process at the lowest possible cost of ownership.
Proven Performance, World Class Results
Achieving the best solder joint quality, maximum topside hole fill, and zero defects are challenges with high mass, difficult-to-solder PCBs. The VectraElite’s features, including ServoJet™ fluxing, forced convection preheat, and DwellMax Plus™ solder nozzles, provide board assemblers the capability to process the most difficult soldering applications in the most demanding environments.
Lead-Free Process Capability
The VectraElite has been soldering lead-free applications for many years. The cast iron solder pot and its components are resistant to the corrosive nature of lead-free solders, and are capable of withstanding temperatures of 302° C (576° F). All stainless steel components that come into contact with the solder are composed of a special corrosion-resistant surface conversion as standard, or titanium as an option. Features such as our Quick Change solder pot provide the flexibility to easily change alloys in a safe and timely manner.
Reliability
Electrovert holds the industry reputation for building the most reliable and longest-lasting wave soldering systems. The VectraElite carries a lifetime warranty on the solder pot casting to the original owner (see the full explanation in terms and conditions).
Conveyor: Process Width Capability:
The robust conveyor is designed to handle the weight of thick boards and pallets; and automatic lead clearance adjustment is standard. A soldering process width of 457 mm (18 inches) is standard while a process width of 508 mm (20 inches) is optional.
Solder Nozzle Technologies
Electrovert has designed solder nozzles that provide board assemblers with the greatest performance, process flexibility, and process control. Electrovert holds multiple patents on various wave solder technologies. Electrovert’s UltraFill™, DwellMax Plus, and DwellMax Ultra solder nozzles are designed to provide maximum top-side hole fill, provide the best hole fill quality, improve first pass yields, reduce dross, and promote easy maintenance.
Fluxing Technologies
As the complexity of board assemblies continues to increase, fluxing quality has become more of a focus to ensure soldering quality. Electrovert offers the best fluxing technologies available. The ServoJet fluxing system provides the ultimate in precision deposition and hole penetration (OA version available for aggressive flux applications) while ServoSonic™ and ServoSpray™ fluxing systems are available for ultrasonic and value-based solutions.
Operations and Software
Electrovert’s software and operation controls were designed with user interface in mind. The Windows® operating system is multi-functional and easy to use. The 3D GUI provides the user a real-time view of the complete machine modules, operation, and product being soldered. All Electrovert systems have a customizable quick view screen that allows engineers and operators to view critical machine parameters that are important to the process or application.
UltraFill Solder Nozzle
The patented UltraFill solder nozzle is an ideal solution for lead-free soldering. The UltraFill nozzle is 40% wider than traditional tin-lead nozzle to increase contact time. The nozzle placement reduces the temperature drop between nozzles and improves hole fill. UltraFill allows either air or nitrogen operation through the same design without switching nozzles. Nitrogen or air operation can be selected through the desired recipe, without the need to change nozzles (also available with the rotary chip nozzle).
DwellMax Plus Solder Nozzle with Nitrogen Tunnel
DwellMax Plus is a patented process solution that meets the challenges of lead-free wave soldering. The extra-wide chip nozzle and modified UltraFill nozzle are ideal for soldering thick, high thermal mass circuit boards, increasing throughput capability and process flexibility across a wide range of products and applications. With conventional wave soldering technology, thick multi-layer and/or high thermal mass circuit boards are often accompanied by high cost from low yields, slow production speeds, rework costs, and the collateral damage associated with a rework loop. The innovative design of DwellMax Plus alleviates these problems and provides better PTH fill at significantly faster conveyor speeds. The benefits of the nitrogen tunnel include improved solder wetting and reduction in dross by up to 83%.
DwellMax Plus benefits include:
Electrovert’s DwellMax Plus is the key to a better bottom line through fewer defects and maximized productivity.
