Controleo3 is an intelligent reflow oven controller built upon nearly ten years of feedback from industry experts and hobbyists. It’s been used to control hot plates, toaster ovens, and even conveyor belts worldwide.
Controleo3 adapts to your oven and application. It learns the characteristics of your oven to fine-tune its PID control loop. Its flexible profile language helps you instruct your oven to do anything from reflow to IC moisture removal.
Damaged parts, troubleshooting, and long lead times are a headache. Unfortunately, many commercial ovens don’t conform to standards needed for reliable reflow. That’s why we compiled our build guide using feedback from thousands of engineers.
Do you ever feel like your reflow process could be better? Well, with the Controleo3, you can be sure that you're getting the best possible results.
No programming needed. Just configure the fans and elements your oven has and the software will do the rest.
Intelligent software manages element on-time, reducing hot and cold spots in the oven. You choose when heat comes from the bottom or top of the oven.
Elements are turned on and off independently eliminating the current spikes common in single-relay controllers.
Connect Controleo3 to a computer to track reflow progress and get data to plot a temperature graph. SD cad logging and on-screen graphing are also supported.
Controleo3 is compatible with the Arduino programming environment, and runs Arduino Zero sketches. The "Reflow Wizard" software for Controleo3 is available on GitHub.
Controleo3 can read your step by step instructions from a file during reflow. Controleo3 supports up to 28 user-defined profiles.
Controleo3's firmware can be upgraded by you, whenever there is a new software release.
The baking mode supports a full range of temperatures, and a duration of up to 168 hours.
We offer four options to get started with Controleo3
This kit has everything you'll need to install the controller yourself. Includes Controleo3 and some parts to get started. Ships with a perfectly-sized ABS enclosure, type-k thermocouple, SD card, and more.
Everything you'll need to build the oven in the build guide. The kit is designed for smaller, non-convection ovens up to 10 liters. Toaster oven not included.
Everything you’ll need to build a reflow oven with a convection fan. Convection ovens are bigger, but are much harder to heat. Toaster oven not included.
A finished reflow oven built according to the build guide. They have been tested and are ready to reflow your boards. The maximum supported board size is 8” x 10.5”. They require a 110V 15A circuit.
The Controleo3 build guide makes installation a breeze, and building your own oven teaches you how to tune it for excellent results. Use our customizable profiles and open-source software to tweak your oven to perfection.
Controleo3's flexible profile language makes it easy to tailor the oven's behavior to your needs. Write custom profiles to match your solder paste's datasheet, remove moisture from ICs, or even dry 3D printer filament.
Our flagship product, Controleo3, is built upon a decade of feedback from thousands of industry experts. Today, Controleo is used by large corporations, top universities, and even large-scale electronics manufacturers.
