If this is happening the way I think it must be, then part of the problem is the input conveyor being faster than the oven speed. Can you slow the conveyor down? Of course if you do this, expect the operators to complain. Also consider the possibi

True, But it was a rather nice looking PC on our 6622C.... And have you considered that without a PC how could they give us all of those really helpful alarms that seem to go off every 5 mins? (really handy as you're showing customers around. "Tha

Thanks folks !! I'll experiment with the bottom side heaters. Unfortunatly I don't think our Vitronics-Soltec oven has the option for adjusting the heater fan speeds. And I'll check the conveyor chains. This is our first project using 0402 parts, wh

I know exactly what you are going through. One example, I needed a flux pump assembly. Vitronics price, about $1000.00. Going through the OEM (Fluid-O-Tech) the same assembly was $218.00. Oh and God forbid that you actually have to call Vitronics an

I have the same experience, take their oils and greases, same thing, call their suppliers and everyting is Twice to 4times! as cheap. On the other hand they dont bother taking of their OEM stickers so their spare parts are quiete easy to track down,

Yes, it's fine - as Pete says you have to replace certain parts & either get the pot recoated or a new one. We ran a "Lead free" 6622C from Vitronics Soltec on Tin Lead, then it was cleaned up, recoated and loaded with a no-lead alloy with no proble

I think Mr Guru likes to smoke his joints leaded. Seriously, Soltec offers 'leadfree upgrade kits'. You should be fine with 8 zones, but if you don't have bottom heating, you might want to consider inserting some in your reflow (peak) zones. Give

Yes it's definately possible to have too much flux. You'll see a white residue film on the board. In the past we have had hipot issues cause of too much flux residue ,left on the boards. You defininately don't want to be using a no clean flux and sti

What rpm is the Delta wave going at? (I think it was recommended to have it running at 700-800 rpm even if you are not using it, otherwise you get a dip in the main wave) At least that's what I think I remember from a trip to their factory, but they

No, not by us mere mortals but where there WML there's hope. I'm not convinced the package would like around 260C either. Disclaimer: Please note I am just a simple engineer and was not privileged enough to attend Soltec University, instead having
Reflow ovens for automated SMT PCB assembly, specializing in lead free processing and nitrogen reflow. The best convection reflow ovens on the market.
