Doug, We are getting ready to do some trials at the moment. I have profiled the oven and achieved the Required Temps. that would be desirable. I dont envisage any problems what so ever aslong as who ever is doing the profile fully understands the

I feel your pain - we do the same. My favorite: no extra panels or boards for profile and due to the fact that we're behind on an order, a first article of a fairly complicated board goes from 10 to an order for 500. Myself and production takes th

I have used one (actually 2) of these machines. The upside is you can point to the print-out and tell your customers that you do test for cleanliness, and you pass. The reality of this test is that it tests for exactly 1 type of contamination. The

At my 2nd company, I had a design EE come down, look at his product running down the line, looks at the reflow oven... He scoffs sarcastically...and then says, "What the hells so hard about this...you're just running it through an oven." Process an
