The MX-5200 Series is a precision, high-power soldering system with dual switchable ports. It features ergonomic hand-pieces, a built in power meter, 80 watts of power per channel or 40 watts simultaneous, and includes SmartHeat Technology for quick response and precise control.

For two users or single user with dual applications. The MX-5200 can be operated with two hand-pieces dynamically sharing the 80 watts output power based on demand adding even more application flexibility and speed.

Fast time to recovery. Delivers increased production rates and throughput no matter the application. The challenges of high mass components, multilayered boards and lead-free solders are seamlessly tackled by the MX- 5200 super-charged power supply.

SmartHeat process control. The technology built in every Metcal system means that soldering and rework are always performed at safe, controlled temperatures. Metcal users know that moderate fixed temperatures, where power is varied, provides the best assurance for a well controlled soldering and rework process.

TipSaver Workstand improves tip life as well as operator ergonomics. This "Auto Sleep" workstand reduces power to the handpiece when it is placed in the Metcal TipSaver workstand. Reduction in power will substantially decrease tip oxidation, a major cause of reduced tip life.

ESD safe and features incoming AC ground monitoring circuitry. The AC (mains) ground monitor detects power line ground failure, immediately alerting the operator and shutting down the system. Only after the power line ground has been restored can the MX-5200 be restarted and soldering operations can be resumed.

Built in power indication meter with digital display and bar graph that visually provides the operator with feedback on the status of the soldering operation. Whether using a large mass rework tip for QFPs or a fine-point soldering tip, the power indication meter is a valuable resource for making consistent, acceptable solder joints.
 

Four mode indicators:

Ready Mode: The hand-piece is removed from the workstand, ready for soldering or rework. Power Mode: The hand-piece's tip is in contact with the load. The power indication meter provides graphical and numeric feedback on the system power output. Sleep Mode: The hand-piece is at rest in the workstand; power is reduced to the hand-piece. Powersave Mode: Power to the hand-piece is shut off. This programmable sleep feature allows an operator to set the desired time to cut off power to the hand-piece (from 10 to 120 min.).

It is also possible to upgrade your existing MX-5200 system with a Metcal upgrade kit. Each kit includes a handpiece and workstand, as shown below.
