Nope. I prefer foam.

Bought spray fluxer unit extension to our machine ;) AFAIK water based fluxes are not available for foam, and we didn't wanted to move toward the alcohol based ones because of theirs multiple drawbacks

Hi, colleagues! We only start using pb-free tehnology Our wave have foam fluxer What kind of flux would be best if we will use Sn100 solderbar What is your experience Best regards Peter

Hi everyone, We just got our first wave soldering machine operational (novastar 8s) and its working great. I'm just a little unsure about how to best maintain the foam fluxer daily. Do you drain it from the machine each day or just cover the flux t

Thanks for the tip! Do you find the boards require any cleanup after exiting the wave with the Superior 420-XF-LF?

We do run them through an Aqueous washer, but I don't see excessive deposits or anything before washing. And our wash is just heated DI water.

We've started off with Kester 951 'no-clean' so far which is alcohol based I believe. It seems to do very well with foaming, activation and low residue, but if we can move to water based and get good results that would be great. The 951 flux and thin

Superior 420-XF-LF is what we use. When we switched, it took some time of just running it through the stone before we got the optimal performance. Especially when going into the clean and dry tank on monday morning, we usually let the fluxer run for

Thank you very much for sharing this information. It is difficult to gain knowledge in this area independently. I'll contact Kester for information on adjusting the flux density and which "thinner" to use since I am using their flux. I really like

Are you running a water or alcohol based flux? We run a water based product and it stays in the tank with the stone all week and is emptied and cleaned at the end of the production week. Never once have I stored the stone in thinner and I've never
