I would recommend that you find a small 3-4 zone oven with convection preferably. If you are running lead free then you will want to find at least a 5 zone. With lead free coming on, there are many small ovens available from companies upgrading.

The best small reflow oven that I have ever used is the Sikama brand. Unfortunately they are not inexpensive and you will pay almost as much as you would for a full size reflow oven. Interestingly this is the oven I qualified for lead free and othe

Hi Snehal, Plenty of useful inputs have already been offered here . Lead free compatibility indeed is a good suggestion. How about also considering maximum & operational power consumption of such an oven ? Rgds

Hi Snehal, Here are some considerations for you: Will you be doing Lead free soldering in the near future? What level of throughput are you looking for - are you high volume, medium or low volume? What is the support network like in your area? W

What paste are using? You should referance the manufactures time and temperature specification. Running lead-free in a 5 zone oven can be done with out a problem but it is not production friendly. If you are concerned with through put I would look fo
