The Electra is Electrovert's top-of-the-line wave solder machine. Just about the best you could get. Conveyor concerns should focus on the condition of the extruded rails. A machine that new should not have a problem, buy worth a look see. Find out i

Mrduckmann2000: Why do you want to do this? * Removing a non-washable / peelable temporary solder resist [TSR] is going become very tedious, because they do not release well from small / tight / isolated features. * Clay from washable resists will

Hi, Your right guys, and we turned off the chip wave, and most of the problem went away. It looks much better, and we are getting a slight bridging on a USB connector at the front edge of the PCB and a little adhesion, but not any where as much as w

Dreamsniper, The optimum contact (dwell) time in the wave should be 2 seconds. Contact band width is a function of conveyor speed. For an example, 5cm of contact band width at 150cm/min. conveyor speed will give you 2 seconds of contact time and 2cm
