Also check out the Rhythm from RPS. We have been using a Rhythm selective solder machine to do what you are talking about for several years now.

I would suggest investing in a selective solder machine as well. This has saved us on a ton of labor and headaches. The customized brackets for the wave is not cheap. I would first check auctions to save thousands...

What about when using noclean and alcohol based fluxes? Could humidity still cause issues?

is there flux on the board? are you probing a test point or a soldered pad? is the probe hitting the right spot?

If your ovens are 480V you may be able to convert them back to 240V by changing out the elements? There are industrial suppliers for oven elements out there. sarason

So do you guys really not like running oven's this large at 240V? Or do you just not like the two ovens specifically that I mentioned?

Oh no, it's rated at a max of 120A at 208V. We have the power for that. At least the Vitronics is, not sure on the Heller.

In my experience Heller makes a great, no frills oven that just runs. The only Vitronics oven I've dealt with was over-engineered and gave me nothing but headaches.

What we did not talk about is Mycronic machine. Great choice for small batches.

> What we did not talk about is Mycronic machine. > Great choice for small batches. Yeah? That's what I keep hearing! Would use that exclusively for small runs, with the Opal for larger batches.
