My company is looking at the various options for selective soldering machines. We are mostly a low volume, high mix facility, with some moderate volume orders as well. I have looked at the Pillarhouse Topaz XL, Ersa Versaflow, and Vitronics Soltec

Try add a pre-heater. If not change the process or the machine. With KISS you will hardly get any PCB to work properly.

HOW THICK IS THE BOARD? IS THERE A LOT OF COPPER IN THE BOARD? DOES YOUR CUSTOMERS PROVIDE HEAT RELIEF IN THE BOARDS BARREL DESIGN THERE NEEDS TO BE PLENTY OF ROOM FOR LEADFREE SOLDER TO FLOW, DID YOU CHECK YOUR PIN(LEAD)TO HOLE (BARREL) RATIO? N

We use both types in house. We started with a board moving over the pot, slowly moved on to Jade machines and eventually Synchrodex. Like you mentioned without palletizing you'll have component movements during the cylce and most likely won't have th

Low end selective laser soldering systems are limited to what types of soldering can be performed. I have read through the previous comments and find that most have commented on earlier technologies (which do not offer the features today's system do)

Is the process the same for every product running through the selective solder machine? Load program, acquire or set up fixture, Change/load flux?, Change/Load solder pot? Are the machines cold when the operators need to use them or are the machin

All the response is appreciated. We have 4 SS machines and 2 operators (normally). Some jobs take up to 15 minutes (multiple boards), some take less than 2 minutes (machine time). Some involve fixtures, preheat, some may require the operator to mon

It's been a few years, but lack of preheat was my problem with this machine.

Preheat is a option that we use on almost all boards. We have the pillarhouse jade models.
