With our last two ovens (Heller and now BTU) spanning the past 7 or 8 years I did it once a month and have never seen any issues. Reflow ovens these days with PID controllers know exactly what they are doing inside well before you run a profiler thro

+1 on what robgd3 said. It's basically the same process. The bummer is that you only have three thermocouples to give you the information you need, so placement (and attachment) is more critical. You also don't have the predictative capability of

Call Heller directly, and give them the oven, and relative thermal density of the board, as well as the solder paste that you're using. They'll be able to give you a baseline profile to start from (both RTS and RSS). Otherwise, use a thermocouple p

Presumably you're talking about lead free, but you don't say. Heller can probably provide you with a starting point, as rob has already pointed out, but you do need to develop the capability to perform profiling yourself. That oven should have ECD

There is no formula out there that chooses a model for low volume high mix. Every oven can manage the throughput, which leaves us with cost, servicing, flexibility and reliability. Ersa Pros: Longer heated length than the ovens I am comparing it t

Hi James Short answer... yes... long answer...impingement velocity is excellent for heat transfer but it also is a higher risk of moving components. Variable speed blowers allow you to reduce the speed / impingment and more than likly your compone

Small components blown issue could be due to one of the below. - Process issue; Make sure solder paste is fresh, if flux is drying out it will not hold parts properly. Check downward pressure of Pick Place. SOT may have to be pushed a little harder i

Typical problems with our heller 1707 EXL would be blower issues. We have almost replaced every blower on the top sense purchase. Fortunately Heller is very good about honoring there warranty on the blowers which is quite long, Might be lifetime not
