Ianchan: Watch yourself. Old style vapor phase oven are being replaced by ovens build to capitalize on new generation fluids [ie, Ausimont, F2, etc]. These machines could fill roles in soldering of no-leads.

You should use the equipment mart right here in the good ole SMTNET. Russ

could you elaborate on the type of component involved to help us understand the issue better....if this assembly is a special case you might try vapor phase soldering of that assembly...although that is a capital investment if you are not currently s

If the sensor can survive the 200C in the molding machine, then could it not survive Pb-free soldering? Maybe not convection reflow, but it should be able to survive vapor-phase reflow. I would control solder height by controlling the amount of paste

We have been doing pilot runs with vacuum installed on vapor phase. Voids are down but bridges are up on the .5mil BGAs.

Thanks for all the input. Going to try vapor phase. We have an Asscon Q300 demo. I'll post results when we have them. Jim
