P o w e r. P re c is io n . P e rf o rm a n c e . METCAL MX-5000 Soldering, Desoldering and Rework System 01 Today, the main challenges for hand soldering and rework are driven by three factors. First, the need for more heat with lead-free and high thermal demand boards. Second, the need for higher levels of precision with increasingly smaller components. And finally, the need for greater control with components and substrates that require limited exposure to high temperatures. The new MX-5000 Soldering, Desoldering and Rework System is the next generation of the trusted Metcal Soldering Systems that enable increased productivity and process control for a wide range of applications. Building on the renowned strengths of its popular MX-500 predecessor, the new MX-5000 Series increases output power, adds process feedback, and improves application flexibility with new hand-pieces. More power. With nearly double the power of its predecessor, the MX-5000 time-to-recovery increases production rates and throughput. The challenges of high mass components, multilayered boards and lead-free solders are seamlessly matched. Improved ergonomics. The MX-5000 Series offers two new soldering hand-pieces. The Metcal Advanced ? Hand-piece for soldering and rework provides a cooler, lighter weight and more comfortable feel for the operator. And, the new Metcal UltraFine ? Hand-piece features a new generation of extremely fine diameter cartridges in a slim profiled handle. Both of these hand-piece designs advance manual dexterity and ergonomics resulting in productivity gains and operator comfort. Greater process control. SmartHeat? Technology in every MX-5000 System means that soldering and rework are always performed at safe, controlled temperatures. Metcal users know that moderate fixed temperatures, where power is varied, provide the best assurance for a well controlled soldering and rework process. Metcal Gives You Choices The new MX-5000 Series provides users with
