Optimising the quality of your products. 'Ideal Finish' software.

The Curve-X2 USB datalogger is supplied with Ideal Finish, the most advanced temperature monitoring software package available today. With two user levels Ideal Finish offers user-friendly report functions for standard production work as well as advanced calculations for in-depth analysis of the curing process and oven performance. Detailed graphic representations and customizable reports help you to make the right decisions to optimise your production line.

Flexible software:

• Select your own language
• Create and store oven-layout and oven settings
• Create your own paint-library, complete with cure specifications
• Choose from more than 30 different calculation
• Set your own parameters to create an "Ideal Cure Window"
• Send your reports by e-mail with a single mouse-click
• Insert a picture of your product and have your probe position calculated automatically. Complete with automatic position-lag compensation.
• Create professional reports and documentation in your own style.

A complete range of probes

All Curve-X2 USB probes have been especially designed to guarantee accurate readings:

• Perfect probe-surface contact
• Low mass and optimized shape to avoid influence on temperature behavior
• Cable with easy to clean Teflon outer shield, highly flexible due to the twisted cable cores and extremely strong due to the breaded metal mesh armor.

Magnet surface probe

This probe is fitted with an ultra strong magnet but still has a very low mass and size. The actual sensor is thermally isolated from the magnet in order not to affect the part's temperature. This sensor is suited for use on round parts, such as tubes.

Clamp-type surface probe

Small and elegant surface probe for any type of material. Silver tipped sensor is thermally isolated form the clamp by ceramics.

Ring-type surface probe

Universal probe with aluminium ring at the tip for fast response

Air probes

Available with either clamp or magnet.

Probe-cable

Most of our standard probes are equipped with our special probe-cable. This cable is easy to clean due to the Teflon outer shield.

Wire-type probe

Universal probes that can be used for either air or surface temperature measurements. Measuring element is an open thermocouple that can be attached by adhesive tape or other mechanical means.

Infrared probes

The infrared probes are designed to profile the IR-radiance inside an oven. Because of their shape and design they will give reproducible results each run. Note the actual part temperature is not necessarily equal to the temperature of the IR-probes.

Low temp probes

A set of 6 pieces exposed junction wire probes with attachment pads

Each logger comes with a set of metal probe-tags to match the probes with the channels.

• Outer shield and latches of high-grade stainless steel.
• Magnet plate for holding probes when not in use.
• Cable storage device, allowing surplus length of cables to be stored inside the box. This prevents loose cables that could get stuck in the oven.
• Efficient heat sink to extend the protection time even longer.
