One thing you should do is characterize your reflow oven, run profile boards of various densities, say 2 gm/sq.in. to 10 gm/sq.in. Adjust the oven settings for these various boards to acheive your standard profile based on your solder paste manufactu

If you are doing X-Ray post place and pre-reflow you should be good. Look elsewhere. Check profile - full lead free or hybrid? Be sure you are acheiving the required reflow temps and TAL required for the solder paste too. Check for belt movement

There is no formula out there that chooses a model for low volume high mix. Every oven can manage the throughput, which leaves us with cost, servicing, flexibility and reliability. Ersa Pros: Longer heated length than the ovens I am comparing it t

Thanks for all the replies. Rob . . . that's what I was looking to get feedback on; to see if others can program their reflow ovens so that double sided boards only reflow on top during the second pass. Our oven does have an edge belt conveyer so t

| What oven temperature should be used to reflow solder (Sn63Pb37) on a PC board (0.075" to 0.100" thickness) in 5 to 10 minutes? | D... is correct -- it's all dependent on your paste and your oven. Call your paste supplier (each one has a technica

Hi, We used a batch oven from Reddish Electronics out of the UK. It was convection, and ok, but had limitations. Batch convection ovens start to heat up, so the metal of the oven is hotter and hotter and it effects the profile. So we ended up need

Those of us doing low volume with mesh ovens and double sided boards will often use the titanium strips used for making boards more rigid for wave soldering. Gives you enough clearance for lower profile items that you would typically find on the firs

We currently stuff parts on one side and use a reflow oven. We have been told that many companies are stuffing both sides without high-temp solder or glue. I understand that glue is usually only needed for wave soldering processes. Is it true that
