Yup! All the major players out there - KIC, Datapaq, and ECD - are all capable of profiling both reflow and wave solder. check them out. www.kicthermal.com www.ecd.com www.datapaq.com

Yeah, perhaps lean more towards a ramp-to-spike profile - reducing the soak time and add a littel heat to your temp above liquid. This has worked for us with water soluable paste as we are not required to use no-clean and utilizing a 6-zone oven. G

U may check your profile ramp rate. The flux may evporated and look like cold joint

proper pad geometries, accurate placement, and good reflow profile. Are you having problems right now?

Hi, I have noticed we are getting residue on our wave pcb's and it's worse with lead free, since we changed to the flux we are using. We are currently using Avantec VOC Free flux model Ecofree 303. It looks like it's made in Malaysia. Does anyone h

Been known to dice a flip or 2. (and we're playing in 70 degree weather)!

ECD sells the MOLE, and they sell both the Oven Rider and the Wave Rider to accompany it. The thing is, you can profile both an oven and a wave machine without either if you're willing to just solder your thermocouples to a board. The nice thing ab

Any decent flux would volatise off with the heat of the wave unless absorbed into the solder mask. Test this by trying to clean in alcohol or common solvent aerosol, if it does not clean then it is probably Mineral Salts from solder mask fillers. Ano
