Not sure it's always a great route as the smaller ovens are going to struggle to get a perfect profile for a consistent result, especially on bigger boards with higher layer counts and mixed technology. You may want to take a quick look at a batch va

Grant has a good idea, we started that way also. We made a tank out of stainless steel with copper tube coils about 18" off the bottom. Circulate cold water through the tubes to condense the vapor to keep the loss down. We used electric burners under

Hi, I off center idea we used when we started. Get a pasta cooker, and put in vapor phase fluid, and then use that. Place the product in the bottom of the inner pot, and then heat on a small hot plate. When the vapor cloud gets high enough and the

Thanks John, You built smart batch I/R oven from a consumer toaster oven and that sounds pretty cool and cheap too. I'm hoping that we don't have to resort to all of that to get what we need... although I have been toying around with the idea of buil

When faced with high mass, high cost, sensitive PCBs and now with the added challenges of Pb-Free Vapor Phase is the only safe reflow method for component and joint integrity. A-Tek is the National Distributor for Asscon Vapor phase reflow. Asscon

I am wondering if the fumes from reflow oven should be filtered in any way or can be just releaed to the atmosphere? Could not find any info about it. We're using Indium 8.9 HF SAC305 paste.

Hi Jack, I haven't progressed that much on the reflow project.I'll be working on it in two weeks. Although, I have few vendors that I've been communicating for more info about vapor phase reflow ovens. See the following list: Wenesco Sintronex AICT

Hello everyone, Talking to my boss today I was able to determine what we're really looking for in terms of reflow soldering. The company is not looking to do a volume run; we're trying to solder chips for prototype boards, which are currently done w

The magnetic thing from the sot23 thread made me think of somthing from the past. Does anyone have any experience with vibrating boards during reflow? I know for a fact that if you vibrate a board during reflow it will alow the parts to "float" and
