The SolderStar WaveShuttle Pro is designed to give manufacturers rapid, reliable insight into every critical aspect of wave soldering performance. By capturing essential parameters in a single pass, it provides the clarity and control needed to optimise machine setup, enhance process stability, and maintain consistent soldering quality across production.
A Smarter Way to Understand Your Wave Soldering The WaveShuttle Pro focuses on essential features engineers need for fast, confident process setup and verification.
✔ Two Systems, One Complete Analysis: WaveShuttle Pro combines contact‑based wave measurement with full thermal profiling, giving engineers a complete picture of wave solder performance in a single pass.
✔ Precision Wave Interaction Tracking: As the fixture moves through the solder wave, titanium underside sensors capture true wave height, contact time, and parallelism, ensuring the machine is set up for consistent, high‑quality soldering.
✔ Real‑Time Thermal Profiling : Integrated thermocouples record preheat behaviour and solder pot temperature, allowing engineers to verify that assemblies receive the correct thermal energy before entering the wave.
✔ Fast Data Transfer & Clear Results : All parameters are downloaded via USB or wireless telemetry into Wave Central software, where engineers can instantly review results, apply good/bad limits, and verify process stability.
The WaveShuttle Pro focuses on the essential features engineers need for fast, confident process setup and verification.
Titanium Contact Sensor Array
Durable titanium sensors measure wave height, contact time, and parallelism with exceptional repeatability, providing a true representation of wave behaviour.
Single‑Pass Multi‑Parameter Capture
Wave contact, thermal profile, and machine alignment data are all gathered in one run, dramatically reducing setup and verification time.
Wave Central Analysis Software
Engineers can review results, apply pass/fail limits, and perform optimisation using an intuitive interface designed for fast, confident decision‑making.
Robust Production‑Ready Construction
Built from 10mm anti‑static composite with titanium side rails, the fixture is engineered to withstand daily use on demanding production lines.
✔ The SolderStar WaveShuttle Pro gives manufacturers a rapid, reliable way to analyse and optimise their wave soldering process. By combining two measurement systems into one intelligent fixture, it captures every parameter needed for correct machine setup — from wave contact time and height to thermal behaviour and parallelism. With all this data gathered in a single pass, engineers can move from testing to improvement far more quickly.
✔ Designed specifically for the realities of high‑volume manufacturing, the WaveShuttle Pro is built from a tough 10mm anti‑static composite and reinforced with titanium side rails. Its underside contact sensors deliver accurate, repeatable measurements of wave shape and interaction, while onboard thermocouples track preheat performance and solder pot temperature. The result is a fixture that performs reliably day after day, even in demanding environments.
✔ Once data is captured, Wave Central software transforms it into clear visual graphs and pass/fail indicators. Engineers can instantly see how the chip and main waves are behaving, compare runs, and apply SolderStar’s Process Checker limits for quick verification. Whether fine‑tuning a new line or maintaining an established process, the system provides the clarity needed to make confident decisions without requiring specialist expertise.
