EVS International received a 2021 CIRCUITS ASSEMBLY NPI Award in the category of Soldering – Alternative for its EVS18KLF Solder Recovery System. The award was announced during a special online awards ceremony on Tuesday, April 6, 2021. The EVS 18KLF features a totally sealed cabinet, enclosing the dross bucket and fume extraction. This area is now totally sealed.
Simon G. Norman, Business Director, commented: “We are honored to receive the NPI Award, recognizing the EVS technology in this category. Please stay safe and all at EVS look forward to seeing everyone again soon.”
The EVS 18KLF has a larger 18kilo/40lbs pot allowing customers to recover more dross and giving a faster ROI. Users can quickly recover up to 80 percent of pure solder with a higher ROI from the waste dross.
EVS has continually improved the performance of the EVS units and the new EVS 18KLF is no exception. The solder recovery system has a touch screen display, and like all EVS systems, is totally automatic.
EVS’ new patented technology gives a clean ingot bar as it filters the solder through gauze and the recovery rate is very high achieving up to 80 percent solder from the dross.
The revolutionary Tilting Pot Mechanism allows the engineers to dispense with the space consuming twin opposed air rams and door. Inverting and rotating dross / solder pot and a novel hot air activated auto drain tap creates the solder ingots.
The simple but ruggedly designed unit is highly ISO14001 compatible as it lives by the ISO mantra of reduce --- reuse --- recycle.
Introduced in 2008, the NPI Awards program is an annual celebration of product excellence in electronics surface mount assembly. Premier products based on the finest examples of creative advancement in technology are chosen by a distinguished panel of industry experts.
