1.0 System Description
The main WaveRIDER hardware component is called the RIDER. The RIDER is a
solder machine data collection pallet with ECD’s SuperM.O.L.E. Gold at the heart of it.
When the M.O.L.E. is connected to the RIDER it takes on a special WaveRIDER
configuration for proper data interpretation. While riding on the solder machine,
conveyor data from the solder machine is collected by the RIDER and stored in the
internal memory of the M.O.L.E. After the RIDER has completed the data collection, it is
then connected to a PC and the data is uploaded into the WR SPC software for
analysis.
