�We are proud to receive this prestigious award,� said Paul van der Wansem, BTU chairman and CEO. �This award is another example of BTU�s continued commitment to providing innovative solutions to our customer�s needs, where excellence in product design delivers superior performance and the lowest cost of ownership.�
Featuring eight-zone air or nitrogen models, 350�C maximum temperature, flexible platform configuration, low nitrogen and power consumption, and a comprehensive menu of options, the PYRAMAX 100 provides optimized lead-free processing, maximizing productivity and efficiency. �The PYRAMAX 100 takes lead-free production to the next level. The ability to control the process profile is enhanced by the use of eight zones in the heated section plus a cooling section that uses our programmable closed loop convection control,� said Rob DiMatteo, BTU product manager. �In addition, we�ve created the lowest cost of ownership through reductions in nitrogen and power consumption.�
