Ralph Woodgate is the 'god of wave soldering process control.' We believe he is now retired, but in olden times his presentations at SMTA meetings were 'DO NOT MISS.' We imagine you can find his books on the used book market. Look here: http://use

The high thermal mass of metal core boards makes them difficult to heat with hot air convection heating or IR. So, edge heaters are used for effective heating of heavy core circuit boards. Hakko and VJ Electronix offer edge heaters. We imagine othe
