I worked for Electrovert for 20 years and up till today the 1421 is still the oil of choice. The chain doesn't care who's oven it's running in but it does require regular lubrication.

This is cut and paste from a Conceptronics Document - hope it helps you: Following are the lubricants recommended for oven maintenance: 1. To lubricate the conveyor chain use: A. Biral BIO30 -synthetic high temperature oil (highly recommended)

G'day, I am interested in hearing about the automatic lubrication of the chains in a reflow oven. The systems I have seem to work to a certain degree. They either lubricate too much, so we end up getting oil on the edges of the PCB, or not enough, w

Mike, I have been using a fully synthetic motor oil on the links of my chains of my Hella for 7 years now, and have had no problems. As long as you do not place the oil on the fingers, where it makes contact with the PCB, then you will have no probl

Hi Everyone What lubricants do your maintenance people use for the chains in your Reflow ovens? The manuals for our ovens have one recommendation - but I am always open to other people�s experiences and recommendations. Another option may be easie

With oven temps rising due to Lead-Free Processing, I'm looking for some information on high temp Reflow Oven lubricants. I've found some info in the Fine SMTnet Archives on Chain Lubricants, (Mostly Synthetic Motor Oils), but I'm wondering what othe

You need to find out what Speedline recomends for lubrication and use it (chain oil and screw shafts). Don't try to be clever or cheap by second sourcing your own concoction. Currently I am using: Tribol for the chain Krytox for the screw shaft

Hello I am new to SMT line maintenance. I was wondering what a good option is for a lubricant that we can use in our Heller reflow oven. Especially the witdh adjusting lead screw. The manual recommends Krytox but does not state a specific one. Thanks

Hi Marc I too have been using a fully synthetic Motor oil on Heller reflow ovens for a number of years. In our case Mobil 1 5W-50. We have a field failure problem with some 1% resistors under conformal coating where sulphates are dissolving the si
