my oven has a built in profiler, it works fairly well, but it can not predict changes. my main concern was about the time right before reflow. i know that's where the flux is activated and i was worried that i may be spending too much time at the tem

If you have concerns, you can look at the datasheet for each component or contact one of their application or materials engineers and find out what the components are rated for...process-wise. IE, how long can I be in the oven with this part, at what

I am trying to optimize my reflow profile. i have a 5 zone oven. lead-free: for the 1st 3 zones, i am good, at about 150-200 deg for 150 seconds. during the 4th zone, i am at a temp of 200-220 for 50 seconds. during the 5th zone, i am at 220-245 f

I'm trying to get a better understanding of the cooking process of pcb's. The use of nitrogen in reflow and wave ovens. Seems to have a wide margin of acceptance as a standard gas to prevent oxidation of metals in the board. Has any one heard or us

Today's regular Sn-Pb paste chemistries are designed to run at higher peak temperatures ensuring that your lead-free alloys will coalesce with your regular Sn-Pb solder. That being said, it is do-able to solder both types in one oven. Generally, wit

There is a new toy I received today: a NeoDen TM-240A automatic desktop pick and place machine! I’ve kept my eyes on this baby for a quite a while, and finally decided to make a purchase last week. The shipping was very fast: DHL from China, a total

Hi Gurus, Looking for alternatives to line makeup after reflow oven. Currently, I have a continuous on flat belt conveying out of my reflow oven straight to an EOL bench. The operator manually picks up the board off the belt (there is a roller at t

Has there been a definite date for the total move over to lead free? Will it be 2004 or 2008. Also is there a direct replacement for leaded solder, I have read various articles on numerous alloys suggested for the switch, such as bismuth, tin, copper

Are there profilers that I can use over my leaded and lead-free wave that can also profile my reflow ovens (leaded and lead-free). I'm not that familiar with either but as I learn I can't help but think that there should be something on the market t

I have expirence running,double sided Imm gold boards recently which ed up a lot of solderability issue. The Imm gold need to be slightly more control during reflow oven area on it's profile.
