Metcal

80-Watt Connection Validation™ (CV) Power Supply

Eliminate Calibration with SmartHeat® Power-on-Demand

The foundation of Metcal innovation is SmartHeat®, a breakthrough technology that removes the risks of manual temperature adjustment.

Self-Regulating Heaters: The system senses the thermal load of every individual joint and delivers exact power on demand.
Consistent Results: This ensures a fast, safe, and repeatable process with zero calibration required, protecting sensitive components from thermal damage.

Connection Validation™ (CV): Quality You Can See

We’ve taken process control to the next level with our patented Connection Validation™ (CV) technology. CV removes the guesswork from hand soldering by providing instant, closed-loop feedback.

IMC Formation Tracking: The system calculates the formation of the intermetallic compound (IMC)—the scientific secret to a perfect solder joint.
Operator Feedback: Operators receive immediate visual confirmation, ensuring every connection meets rigorous quality standards before moving down the line.
