Hi Lee, Depends on the pitch, but 3 main options: 1) Use solder preforms and intrusively reflow https://www.indium.com/solders/preforms/ 2) Use a selective solder machine on smallest nozzle or Robot with fine tip. Our Versaflow 3/45 can handle the

I've been using the ERSA Versaflow 3/45 for 3 years. I've been changing the gassing rings and seals annually, but I'm going to a schedule of every 6 months. I blow my gassing rings off with compressed air. I also blow a little into the intake tube to

Mainly for ERSA machines, but I welcome other machines info also. What are you guys getting in regard to nozzle life? I am running an ERSA 3/45 with 4 solder pots in it. 2 lead solder and 2 leadfree. I'm very pleased with the nozzle life I'm gettin

Ersa Versaflow has a nozzle we use for soldering 70 pin connectors, with smt parts 3mm from the leads. As far as soldering through hole (without the tight SMT parts)It's reliable, easy to program and very good quality joints. Your advantages are spee

Iron huh? You sure about that? We have the ERSA Versaflows and our nozzles are made out of ST37 Tool Steel. There is an "American equivalent" to this grade but I forgot what it is. You'll have to google it like I did. Anywho, Tin or Tin-Lead sold

We have a Versaflow 40/50 and ours is setup like this. We have out nozzle test position set so that in the Z axis you are 3.8mm away from the pin. Used feeler gauge Then you can set your gradient per nozzle. Start with a number then do a wave offs

I am a user of an Ersa Versaflow 3/45. I was wondering if anyone could share some process pointers. I have a 0.125" multilayer PCB that I am having problems consistently achieving 75 percent hole fill on a mini-coax connector. The coax connector ha

They are expensive so you need to have a lot of jobs that take a long time to hand solder or have a ton of masking. Also look at bottom side wave soldering, if you are having a lot of defects, the selective will allow you to solder both sides in surf
