Is there are reason for going for larger (or smaller) boards when designing panels for use with a chain conveyor oven? My panels range from 0.6mm 2 layer (for touch with hatched ground) to 1.6mm 4 layer. I'm planning to go for smaller panels to reduc

Have a problem with Omniflo 5 (-97 vintage) pin chain conveyor. Occasionally the conveyor stops for a second or two, then makes a slight jerk, then stops again, makes a jerk etc. Then suddenly the problem goes away only to return next day (we switch

AR Sounds like dirty chains... couple ways to check... Pull off the drive chain for the conveyor. Place a wrench on the (unload end) drive shaft and spin, if it is a bit tough.. dirty rails. Also look at load end of chains. The chain goes low and w

I've never had this problem on an Omniflo oven, but have seen it on others. It has always turned out to be mechanical. A bearing going bad or FOD in the rails. I would pull the chains and carefully check each link of both chains, all of the bearin

I agree that it's the probably the chain. The links get dirty and can bind up over time. When you pull the chain, check to see that each link rotatates freely with its adjacent link. I bet you'll find one or more links that are binding. This is the s

We had the exact same problem on our OMNI 10. We found that two of the rails the pin chain rides in were warped. Somehow at one point our PC lost communication with the oven and the heaters went wide open for several minutes...this is what caused th

We just went through this exact same problem on an OmniFlo. We did all the stuff Marc talks about and the problem went away completely. As Marc states, clean the chain guides! You will will see lots of junk near the last zones(s).

Hi AR Nice job on the chain/rail cleaning. I would contact Speedline Electrovert tech support, 800.737.8110 to assist in trouble shooting. They can walk you through using a meter to measure input and output current to the SC card and make sure tha
