KIC X5 Thermal Profiler: 7-Channel K Type Thermocouple for -50˚C to
+350˚C Temperature Range
Introduction
With 7, 9, and 12-channel models, the X5 is able to acquire a lot
of data, allowing you to precisely evaluate each thermal profile
and process in your factory. Measure slope, peak temperature, time
above liquidous, and more. Data is transferred to your computer via
a USB cable or, for RF models, wirelessly through radio frequency
transmitters—no cable connection required.
KIC 'X5' Key Features
1, Robust hardware backed by 2-year warranty
2, Wireless data transfer with RF-equipped models
3, SPC (statistical process control) software included for
documentation and production optimization
4, Simplifies oven setup: KIC’s optimization software selects the
best oven setup for each new product in seconds
5, User-selectable setup criteria
6, Reduces profiling to a single number: The PWI (process window
index) makes it easy for operators, techs, and engineers to see at
a glance how close the profile comes to spec.
7, Immediate profile analysis: Objective and personnel-independent
profile analysis gives you information you can bank on.

1. High performance software
KICNavigatorTM is the SlimKIC Start of choice. The software
automatically analyses tens of millions of temperature and chain
speed combinations and provides the user with optimal settings in a
very short time (less than a minute).
2. Quick and easy to use
The user simply tells KIC NavigatorTM his process requirements and
the software will relay the optimum set point. Its high degree of
automation allows even operators who are not familiar with the
process to use it. The user no longer needs to try the furnace
several times to get a positively optimised setting.
3. More accurate and optimised process settings
Due to time and resource constraints, it is generally not possible
to increase or decrease manual settings by more than a small amount
(around 5°C), but the KICNavigatorTM is able to make adjustments in
the range of 1°C, resulting in more accurately optimised process
settings.
