George: I would think so. We use an old Vitronics (822??) IR reflow oven to clue SMT adhesives. Gp get 'em!!! Dave F

We do the same when it happens, we only warn the people arround to stay away while the oven is open, or delimitate the oven with a caution cord.

| Hi Stoney, | Justin is giving you some good advice, unfortunately these kinda' problems sometimes call for the ol' D.O.E...otherwise, you could be chasing your tail for a while until you figure out exactly what's causing your problems. | Has

Charlie: People cure glue using their paste reflow profile all the time. And most of them are happy. Personally, I�m with Dean and Travis. It�s possible to as you suggest, it�s appealing not to mess with your oven profile, but it just doesn�t s

I have never tried this and wouldn�t really even want to consider it. Epoxy generally cures at around 160c in a fairly short amount of time, solder paste requires much more time and a peek temperature of about 210c or more in some cases. Curing you

All: I don�t think this isn�t what Charlie was asking about, but since he�s got our juices flowing on the topic, does anyone have a sense about running paste and adhesive at the same time, beyond the issues that we spoke about in responding to Charl

I was somewhat involved with Kermit Aguayo during his work on the SMA-void problem, as I was with one of the SMA suppliers at the time. I recall the problem being related mainly to absorption of moisture by the uncured adhesive. Some SMA formulatio

Check with your adhesive manufacturer. In a previous life we had one line that was either double sided reflow or wave following reflow. When it was ds reflow, we just shut off the wave. When it was reflow/wave, we kept the reflow oven on with the

You�re correct. Probably every supplier�s product has slightly different cure characteristics. Let me spin this up a little differently � There was a slight imbroglio in my office this morning involving a couple of stalwarts and the last Krispy Kr
