GF-125 Five Zone Benchtop Reflow Oven
The GF-125 HC/HT convection reflow oven for PCBs features five zones on top and five bottom vertical heating zones, providing precise thermal control for automatic, medium-volume production runs. Utilizing patented horizontal convection heating technology with stainless steel chambers and a low-mass 12-inch wide stainless-steel mesh conveyor, the system delivers exceptionally uniform temperature profiling across the entire PCB for enhanced SMT process control. With a maximum operating temperature of 400 °C (752 °F), the GF-125 supports both lead and lead-free soldering capability and can be configured with an optional nitrogen atmosphere for high-reliability manufacturing. Its 56-inch (1423 mm) length heating tunnel ensures consistent heat transfer across boards of varying sizes, making it an economic yet high-performance solution for demanding solder reflow applications.
The GF-12/120/125 series heating profiles are superior to other ovens in their class. Each of the vertical heating zones and the single cooling zone is individually programmable through an intuitive controller that stores up to 100 profiles. The system includes a real-time graphic temperature profiler port, allowing actual board-level temperature profiles to be displayed as the PCB travels through the oven. The conveyor speed, heating elements, cyclonic generators, and cooling fans are all programmable to support complex assemblies and high-mix PCB production. Additional features such as SPC fault monitoring and reporting, battery backup, and a seven-day timer for automatic machine start-up provide robust process control and dependable daily operation for production environments that demand precision and repeatability.
