Preheat is a option that we use on almost all boards. We have the pillarhouse jade models.

We're using a Pillarhouse for all of our Pb free. JADE I believe is the model. Good little machine, pretty easy to program and maintain.

On our Pilarhouse Jade we use nitrogen to cool the belt that drives our solder pump as well as keep the amount of oxygen to a minimum in our solder pot to reduce dross.

Thank you. I contacted them today. Their tech thinks it's the camera module box, so we're going to order one from them. Thank you again for your feedback. Dana H. Jade Protronix Arlington,WA

We use a 2mm with our Pillarhouse Jade Mark II. We found that reducing the nitrogen enough that the area around the nozzle stays hot enough not to "freeze".

This has already been done. Companies like Seho Selective Solder machines can provide this service. I imagine it is not cheap. I'd be curious to compare the drop rate of parts per person per hour on a couple of Pillarhouse Jades vs on custom machine.

Is anyone out there having issues with the new improved pumps requiring weekly disassembly? Our nitrogen ppm is at 6 pressure is 85 to 95 psi. We replaced and adjusted the nitrogen supply valves. Thanks

When I press the green start-cycle button the 42V=E light illuminates but the 24V=E light does not. Could this be related?

I have been very happy with Pillarhouse. Exact model for you would depend a lot on batch vs inline. We are using the Jade Prodex.
