OK guys, we got our Adipic acid. What is the preferred methode of applying it? a) Nozzle mounted, momentarily turn off wave and then brush? Or b)coat nozzle with the acid then mount it and turn wave on? By the way, we are using Indium flux WF-994

i've a competitor selective soldering and i would like test the adique acide to clean the nozzle. How much do you use approximativemely to clean a 8/4 mm nozzle?

azhiker, for me I selected method A. But I don't turn off wave and apply acid directly to nozzle with solder.

Stephen, We are now running with 99.999 N, New nozzles and our wave height has stabilized. I will look into the Apidic Acid to clean our nozzles. Thanks for the input. I am just amazed at the difference the nitrogen grade made to our process. Goin

What is anyone using to clean Siemens ceramic nozzles. Siemens recommends a 20% ethanoic solution or a 20% acidic solution but they can't tell me anyone who manufactures this type of cleaning solution. I was using alcohol but was told not to because

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 use adipic acid to clean our Ersa selective solder machine nozzles. Makes a huge difference and is quick and easy.

Try adipic acid to clean your nozzles. It is a powder and can be awkward to work with as a result. But you might end up preferring it. Also look where the substance is not. There are two PTH joints without it. And that chip cap is closer to the PT

I used method 'A' but I leave the wave on. I use a stainless steal brush like 7248T13 on McMaster-Carr.com. This way I can apply the acid and scrub the nozzle. Another important part is get a small brush to push down into the nozzle to make sure y
