| At this moment in time we are using water soluble solder paste on our PCBs these are cleaned using water only, agitated with ultrasonics. After drying a white/grey residue is left around solder joints. Reflow profile is fine and a reliable wash pro

Jay - I read your report and was interested to see that you ran your evaluation on a Heller 1500 5 zone. We have been hearing for some time that a larger machine (7 zone min)with higher temp heaters and fan motors would be required. Is yours a "hi t

For "Production" none of the above or any of this type. These little batch oven are for small labs and prototyping houses, even the best ones have only limited control over the reflow process. None of them are intended for the repeated serial use you

| Rob, | | We are also using intrusive reflow to simultaneously process SMT and Thru-hole components. Our arrangement goes as follows: | | - Screen print solder paste to the single sided PCB using 0.008" laser cut stencil. | - Apply adhesive dots
