Wave Shuttle – Wave Solder Optimizer

The SolderStar WaveShuttle Pro is designed to give manufacturers rapid, reliable insight into every critical aspect of their 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.

Wave Shuttle – Wave Solder Optimizer

A Smarter Way to Understand Your Wave Soldering

The WaveShuttle Pro focuses on the 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 you 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.

Features

The WaveShuttle Pro focuses on the essential features engineers need for fast, confident process setup and verification.

Durable titanium sensors measure wave height, contact time, and parallelism with exceptional repeatability, providing a true representation of wave behaviour.

A Faster Path to Wave Solder Control

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.

Engineered for Daily Production Use

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.

Clear, Actionable Analysis for Every Skill Level

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 you’re fine‑tuning a new line or maintaining an established process, the system provides the clarity needed to make confident decisions without requiring specialist expertise.
