I will add, we also use Pillarhouse and their machines are solid; great little machines for their cost at least. BUT their service is quite subpar unfortunately. It's a small team that services N/A so availability and overall support is lacking. I

Hi, thank you both for answering. Unfortunately, due to volume and the components we repair it is not viable to switch to selective soldering. I already contacted TechSpray and they suggested that I switch to 2211, but I don't think it's going to ho

We prefered kapton tape to peelable mask, though, there is added time/effort to taping the boards, then removing the tape (if it's done hot, it can go pretty quickly). If you're at a volume where manual masking/mask removal is too time consuming, co

My company is looking for a vacuum that can handle being used to clean up solder splashes on the bottom of our wave solder machines and around the solder pot area in our ERSA Selective Solder Machines. In the past we would use a Shopvac but these don

The company I work for is installing a SMT prototype line, and I've been asked to determine the cost of operation. I know there will be cost for solder, solder paste, flux, stencils, glue, nitrogen, ect... I just want to make sure I'm not missing any

Reflow ovens and wave solder machines come in a huge variety of flavors and price points. These machines tell the story of impressive features and capabilities such as flux management, gas flow management, static pressure control, active cooling zone
