The modular built system is claimed to be robust, flexible and ergonomic with easy maintenance as well as fast diagnostics. The TS1200 uses an infrared light technology soldering process to offer easy maintenance, model change and diagnosis. Furthermore, TS 1200 PLUS is claimed to have superior cell loading autonomy and has greatly lessened installed power and air consumption.

Applications
