can we use same reflow oven for lead free and leaded solder paste, is there any chance of lead contamination in lead-free products.

Does anyone have any ideas on how to keep my soldering tips from turning black when using lead free solder. I am going through a lot of tips. Thanks

Hi, Is it necessary to have a tunnel nitrogen? Is it a very common practise amongst contract manufacturers ?

You can most certainly use the same reflow oven for both leaded and lead-free pastes. Obviously your thermal profiles will be different, as the lead-free paste should have a higher reflow temp. As long as your oven has adequate exhaust and flux manag

I want to know the advantage of using complete inert soldering wave machine (with Nitrogen, Tunnel concept) in comparison to use just a soldering machine withe inerted solder pot. Thanks

Hello davide, the biggest advantage you'll find with a complete N2 tunnel is the minimization of oxidation during board preheating. Using only an inerted solder pot allows the oxidation to build up throughout the preheat stages and introduces contami

Hello Kris, No, it's not necessary to have a nitrogen tunnel setup. A nitrogen tunnel allows a process to go the extra step in providing higher quality through less defects. I can't really speculate on it's use in contract manufacturers mainly becaus
