VERTICAL CURING OVENS
Inline Compact Automated Vertical Curing Oven (VCO)
Vertical Curing Oven (VCO) Series
Underfill, Epoxy Resin Encapsulation, and Adhesives
The Anda vertical curing oven (VCO) uses recirculating hot air to accelerate printed circuit board assembly (PCBA) cure times for underfill, epoxy resin encapsulation, and adhesives. Our vertical curing oven works inline with production processes for eliminating manual loading/unloading of batch curing ovens. Unlike horizontal conveyor style ovens, the VCO Series accommodates larger quantities of boards utilizing a compact footprint. This makes vertical curing an ideal solution for processes where factory floor space is limited or in clean room environments.
The uninterrupted curing process of the VCO Series reduces manufacturing costs and improves both production and quality of assemblies. Unlike a batch oven, the doors on the VCO Series remain closed during production ensuring constant heat tracking throughout the curing process, this ensure coatings are precisely cured at controlled temperatures in order to maximize coating strength and provide better PCBA protection.
