We have recently acquired a Pillarhouse Jade machine which has changeover pots from Pb Free to Pb and the bath it small so changeover heatup is fast . Although it's runtime is slow it seems to run the product well.We are also running an Ebso 400 but

First profilers are expensive and you can use temperature dots for setting up a wave. You stick them to the top side of the board and they change color based on temp. Top side temp should be around 250f or 125c when it hits the fountain. If you spra

I'm not a Wave soldering guy and my friend have asked me a question on what is the best preheat time and temperature for Wave soldering.They experiences only 10% flow up thru the PTH barrel. I've asked them to increase the temperatue to 120 Deg C. Cu

| Rob, | | We are also using intrusive reflow to simultaneously process SMT and Thru-hole components. Our arrangement goes as follows: | | - Screen print solder paste to the single sided PCB using 0.008" laser cut stencil. | - Apply adhesive dots

Hi, Does any body have the experience with wave soldering a "Gold" plated PCB with SMD assembled on it? I`m experiencing massive bridging,icicles,Shadowing & Skipping. The present soldering angle is 6 deg:,pre heating rate is 2 deg/sec , Dwell time

Milroy, Another thing to look at is your wave profile. Check speed and pre-heat, if flux gets burned off before reaching the wave then bridging is expected, a common way to check for speed is to time the point of first contact through the sub-merge

Sure KA, it's done every day. Be sure that the components to be used on the bottom can take the maximum heat of the wave and the delta T of entering the wave. Depending how complex the bottom side is you will get better results with attention paid

It seems like the flux is burning-up before the metal begins to flow on this slightly odd component. Alpha talks about alternate reflow recipes for WS609, as follows: * A straight ramp up profile is preferred for reflowing low to medium thermal mass

Hi Guys, Can anyone help me in providing their experience in process related problems with regards to the above equipment? I noticed that it's slightly different with the wave soldering. Wave Process: Apply Flux, Pre-heat then Solder Selective Sol
