We have an ERSA machine here where we have solder "spikes" occasionally. We have made sure our flux is dispensing properly, we have adjusted z axis speeds, our preheater is heating properly, adjusted XY speeds, etc. Can anyone think of something we m

It looks like one oven is 10years newer than the other, so if we assume same maintenance routine you should get another 10 years if life on it. On the TH side, you know your board complexity - for me wave have much more value than a Selective. Selec

FYI, in my experience, programming and fine tuning select solder is usually quick and painless.

Hey all, I've made a post in the past about us expanding to a new space, but I wanted to do a new post with specific questions. We currently have a DEK 265, Phillips Opal Xii, and a Heller 1500. Our main reason for expanding is to have a lead-free

If your ovens are 480V you may be able to convert them back to 240V by changing out the elements? There are industrial suppliers for oven elements out there. sarason

So do you guys really not like running oven's this large at 240V? Or do you just not like the two ovens specifically that I mentioned?

Oh no, it's rated at a max of 120A at 208V. We have the power for that. At least the Vitronics is, not sure on the Heller.

What we did not talk about is Mycronic machine. Great choice for small batches.
