1-UP Reflow System (Compressed-Air less)

No Compressed Air. Faster Reflow. Built to Scale.

The 1-UP Reflow delivers high-precision hot-air reflow without external compressed air—cutting costs, reducing complexity, and accelerating cycle times. Engineered for catheter manufacturing, it produces uniform, repeatable bonds on braided sub-assemblies and liners.

This isn’t a lab tool. The 1-UP shares the same platform as our 4-UP and 8-UP systems, so processes developed here scale directly to production. Process parameters transfer directly—no rework, no surprises.

Develop fast. Validate once. Scale without risk.

  • 360° Precision Hot-Air Nozzle for uniform, circumferential reflow

  • Up to 185 cm Linear Travel for long catheter assemblies

  • 10″ High-Definition Touchscreen HMI for intuitive operation

  • Fully Programmable Reflow Control including length (cm), speed (mm/sec), and dwell time (sec)

  • Recipe-Based Temperature & Airflow Synchronization for repeatable results

  • Process Window Monitoring with Automatic Alarms to flag temperature deviations outside defined limits

  • Up to 50 Programmable Process Zones with independent length and speed control

  • Unlimited Recipe Storage for rapid changeovers

  • Electric Catheter Clamps supporting OD sizes from 0.050″ to 0.45″
