Just a note, on fixed galden machines yes the way they compensate for rise time is as the previous post suggested, change power and also stage the lowering of the PCB into the vapor cushion ie not the main one but further up in the tank. The disadvan

Vacuum Soldering is mostly available with Vapor Phase Soldering systems as a option. Asscon / IBL / Rehm Thermal all offer this... Rehms system is unique as they offer in place solder and vacuum vs the other two vendors that move a PCB with Molten

We are evaluating Vapor Phase right now, and there is something that bothers me a bit. The machine has a preheating stage where we can bring the board, components and paste up to temp to dry the paste out before descending into the Vapor. The heatin

Vapor Phase, Nitrogen Oven, Convective Oven? Which among the above 3 ovens do I need to process my BGA's and Fine pitch on a 6 to 12 layer board. Which will give me best results? Inert type oven or just a convective oven? Another thing is what will

We have enough volume/oversized products that batch vapor doesn't quite work. Once you move into the quasi inline or fully inline vapor system they become eye-wateringly expensive. Plus you get an entirely new process to learn, potentially increased

Have not researched vapor phase reflow ovens. Thought they were no longer manufactured (outside of Europe). Can you recommend a manufacturer based out of US? Never seen one in production, only heard of these ovens being widely used up to early 90'

We use the same oven for both Pb and Pb-free assemblies. We have been for about two years. We have not seen any issues with contamination. I can't imagine how any Pb would end up in a Pb-free joint in the reflow oven. The Pb doesn't vaporize, the

Thanks John, You built smart batch I/R oven from a consumer toaster oven and that sounds pretty cool and cheap too. I'm hoping that we don't have to resort to all of that to get what we need... although I have been toying around with the idea of buil

Thanks to Scott for your reply, much appreciated. Are you aware of any new developments in this area? Particularly in respect to the solvents? We are aware that fluorine chemistry is now in-use with amazingly high boiling points. We understand that
