Outstanding value


KICstart²™ The excellent value uses the core technology of KIC, which is the world leader in thermal process temperature measurement, and is supported by KIC's deployment worldwide. Low cost coupled with innovative process technology makes KICstart2 an ideal cost-effective thermometer.


Easy use 


KICstart² The configuration is simple and not complicated, but it allows you to quickly obtain accurate temperature curves. KICtart2 is the right choice for you to use only to know the temperature curve of the product immediately. The patented design of KICstart2 allows the temperature curves of each component with a thermocouple to be displayed synonously.


Instant process analysis 


Once the temperature curve has been tested, KICstar2 will use the Process Window Index(PWI) to analyze the process. PWI is a single number used to determine whether the actual process of a product is within the range of process specifications set for it(please refer to PWI's technical information for details). PWI provides you with an instant, intuitive and objective data to determine whether the product produced meets the process specifications, thus avoiding substantive speculation.


Reliable and durable 


KICstart²Extraordinary accuracy and reliability compared with other award-winning KIC products. It is a 6-channel temperature tester using the solid physics process. It is designed to withstand the periodic heat processing process on lead-free or leaded electronic assemblies for many years.

Process Window Index


A single number to indicate the advantages and disadvantages of a temperature curve


PWI is an objective mathematical calculation method. It uses a single number to measure the degree to which the temperature curve approaches the process window. PWI is thus of great benefit to process optimization: it can quickly compare and arrange the degrees of proximity of different temperature curves to the process window. The lower the PWI value represents the more efficient and stable the process! (For details, please refer to PWI Data Sheet)
