Our nitrogen generator and an air drying unit came with the selective solder machine when it was purchased new in 2008 as a package deal. We originally were feeding the system with air that was not properly dried. That lead to some maintenance cost

Charlie, For the 300 cylinder (the largest Airgas sells), it's going to cost about $66/cylinder for the gas (plus delivery charges). They also charge a $99/year lease for the cylinder. Based on those costs, and a low-end N2 generator system that I

Nitrogen increase surface tension in solder. This also reduces solder balls.

what does nitrogen do to assist the selective soldering process?

Hello, The selective solder has went to the end and gotten stuck trying to figure out why?

Less Oxygen... Less Oxidation Less Oxidation... Better Solderability

In addition to reducing oxides my understanding is that nitrogen increases the surface tension of solder (I've also read the inverse). Bottom line, Nitrogen reduces rework, improves quality, improves solder appearance, and reduces maintenance. Shea

Its the kiss 103 selective solder machine. The end of the travel, it's the x axis. when i tried jogging it nothing happens just makes a noise. Thanks for responding.
