We would usually have the bottom zones at the reflow with 10 degrees less than the top ones for the secondary side. This we proved helps to keep the parts of the primary side on the board.

We run the same profile for both sides. We also run the bottom temp 10C cooler in the final 2 heat zones.

Google for this: "weight_limit_qfn_smta.pdf" Although it is focused on QFN, formula can be used for most parts...

Hi there, in my factory we use profiling every temp. change or once per day others make 1 profile for machine per week what is safe in your oppinion to be sure that all products made are good :) or if 1 per week is enough how to prove it to bosses

I run the same profiles for Top and Bottomside assemblies for all of my products. Only in rare instances have I been forced to run a profile with cooler bottom zone settings. This was obviously driven by assemblies with heavier components on the bott

Hi, We run a profile check each time we load a recipe. This ensures that the correct settings have been used for the job. It also gives traceability in the event that you need to prove whether or not the oven temperature was the cause for failed pro

Pavel is right...Your Quality Group, customers, and Management will really appreciate Cpk's. We do Cpk's annually, or whenever a major mechanical change (motor, blower, etc) is made. Pavel is correct in saying that Cpk's on most modern convection o

The formula is a great help, where was it 20 years ago? LOL After running a few thousand different products over the years, you start to get a feel for what is going to be trouble with regards to falling off the bottomside during the secondary refl

If your product mix is similar in terms of thermal mass and componentry, find some standard setpoints (by doing a baseline profile) which will produce a thermal profile that's within the specs. of your solder paste and product. This approach usually

Profiling is product specific. An instrument called the OvenRIDER from ECD is for soldering machine quality management. See link below. This instrument measures various parameters of your oven to include thermal transfer efficiency. The concept is,
