Blundell Production Equipment has released the twin soldering station from ERSA. The I-CON2 complements the established single I-CON station that has been successful in the UK since its introduction during May 2006. The twin soldering station has three configurations; the AC version is supplied with a 150 Watt I-Tool on one side, and a desoldering chip tool on the other. An anti-twist mechanism incorporated in the chip tool ensures the paired tips provide precise and efficient component removal.
The AXT version comes with an I-Tool and X-Tool desoldering hand-piece, complete with its own compressor station. The X-Tool has twin heating elements positioned either side of the desoldering nozzle. In addition, removed solder is collected in a disposable paper cartridge that eliminates the need for glass tubes. Nozzles are quickly changed without the need for pliers or screwdrivers. Finally, the AIT version is supplied with two I-Tools, which is particularly useful if swapping between tin/lead and lead-free technologies. Each tool has separate programmable settings from the other. As with the standard single station, state of the art features such as auto standby to detect when not in use, password protection, process window alarm and ultra fast programming via an I-Set Tool (similar to a USB memory stick) have been copied across to the twin soldering station.
