On an ACE KISS machine we could program a drop in Z height to give a peel off angle after the component was soldered. Usually not necessary as the solder at the nozzle is falling away from the lead down the nozzle. If possible, we would program a fr

We have a Vitronics mySelective machine (model 6749, or "the Fat Bastard" as we affectionately call it). It's configurable with various combinations of "select wave" and "multi wave" pots. Ours has one of each. The "select wave" is for the most pa

I think what Chunks meant is... TOOLING = THOSE POTS So basically, if some of your SMT or Through-Hole parts move around via a redesign or a respin, you will incur tooling costs (TOOLING is "THOSE LITTLE POTS FULL O' SOLDER.") When you're research

Is this for a Selective Solder? If so what size nozzle do you run. I run at 315 C most of the time. You can speed up your process time and still achieve good solder fill.

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

I have no experience running a "move the board" selective solder so can not compare the 2 methods..... We have been using an RPS Rhythm "move the pot/nozzle" system since 2008. We are using it solder thru hole components onto boards that often have

GR@ICS, can you be more specific about your up in the Ersa machine please? Nozzle size, pump rate (%), and is your machine equipped with monitors on the solder pots? We have the same machine it sounds like, however we run Pb-Free in both pots. I

I can't claim to be an expert....I've just bought a used RPS, and it'll be my first...but, after reading through their manual, and working on setting things up, I'd say: -Conceptually, I like the idea of moving the board rather than moving the entir

I use a two machines from EBSO, Germany. It's a machines with PCB carrier, so, solder pot is fixed. I'm fully satisfied with this equipment, but I use only wettable nozzles. If you would like to buy a new machine, not in used condition, EBSO will be

We have a 3/6 Nozzle We do have monitors. One of our pots is leaded, the other is lead free. Our average wave height is ussually around 50%. Also, do you have any or found any benefits to removing nozzels at the end of your shift. I recall you say
