Hi!Charlie, 1.Are you retrofitting your spray fluxer in your wave soldering machine? If you are, please ensure that you have a air knife just before the preheater!Fluxe fumes tends to accumulate and that could be dangerous if your air exhaust is not

There is a need to set up the spray fluxer on our wave machine. I'm looking for guidelines and comments form others who have done this set up. Also, is there any rule of thumb at visual inspection when there is too much or not enough flux being appli

Does anyone have any experience with setting up a nitrogen supply system to a wave solder machine that is equiped for it? Does the nitrogen need to be room temp or higher? Does it make a big difference with bridging or solder quality? We bought a use

We dont have the debridging knife. I had one on an old Hollis machine I had once. It was totally worthless. I am setting up the nitrogen today. I will let you know how its goes. We are using a water based no-clean. The nitrogen will probably make a

I have the identical machine and setup as you with the same issue(s). I looked at setting up for N2 but am choosing to retrofit to a standard lambda nozzle setup. If you are soldering bottom side SMT parts or other challenging assemblies, N2 may ma

Hello Greg, Glad to hear your success with the SACX0307 copy. By the way, does the P mean it contains phosphorus? Does yours also contain bismuth like the SACX0307 (according to their plumbing solder patent for X0307)? In response to your discussion

| Hello, | | I need some users information about "hot air knife" after the wave | bath: | - Defects reduction ? | - In what kind of boards(TH/SMT SOICS ect.) it is applied ? | - Where can I purchase it as a retrofit (Soltec Delta 6622cc) ? |

I agree with RealChunks. The application of any of these "wave solder process control tools" is dependant on how the shop is run. At some shops, PM is inconsistent and slacked off on. At other shops, there is no technical expertise at the operator

That's just dross. If you have nitrogen blowing over the wave, you could reduce its flow as it tends to blow the dust everywhere if it is set too high. (on the other hand it might reduce solder quality)

Blows holes are usually caused by improper amount of flux applied to the boards prior to WAVE process and, in some circumstances, can be related to the preheater settings.
