I would really suggest staying away from novastar on their ovens- we had a really bad experience with two of their ovens being unable to maintain temperature properly. We ended up buying a used BTU VIP70 and it has been working out great. A Heller 18

I built myself a reflow oven using an off the shelf 29l fan forced oven with digital controls. I then fully insulated the cavity around it with kiln fibreglass, and added a metal infill at the back as the back of the oven was just a metal sheet. Anyw

I have used the Chinese ovens that Manncorp is selling bought from another supplier and they can do the job. These will do the job. You can manufacture metal piece(plate) slightly tilted to collect the boards behind the oven(similar to wave soldering

We had a gf12 and a 1200. I'm not sure what year they were. Sold them and got an oven with some horsepower. Our Novastar 8" wave solder machine still works well and is the reason we tried their ovens, but they just did't work out well for us.

There may be a coating on the components that fell-off that prevents the glue from bonding well to those components.

I had the same problem. However, now that I switched to crazy glue the parts stay on the board.

Some IC's have their body away from the board. Is the glue making sufficient contact with the IC's bodies?

With us, it was the component coating! try other make or vendor to see
