Different points on the board couple have different thermal masses. Look here: http://www.ecd.com/portals/5/products/vmole/V-MOLE-Verify-3-Thermocouple.pdf

| I like to know under what conditions the reflow profile of a solder paste is taken? Bare board, board with the solder paste, or board with high melt solder paste? | John: None of the above. The two key variables that determine the reflow tempera

ECD sells the MOLE, and they sell both the Oven Rider and the Wave Rider to accompany it. The thing is, you can profile both an oven and a wave machine without either if you're willing to just solder your thermocouples to a board. The nice thing ab

| Anyone have any experience with ECD's Waverider/MOLE profiling equipment? If so, were they positive experiences? | I use ECD's mole for profiling in the wave and a KIC for profiling in reflow. I like the KIC a whole lot better for a couple of re

I'd like to add something about the ECD product. During a past work term (I'm a a co-op student) in an SMA plant, I worked extensively with the Super MOLE Gold in developing the reflow profiles for high-mix, low-volume production. I was 'married' t

Before "Pb-Free" became an issue we were and still are using Pb-Free component lead finishes- such as on many TSOP, SSOP and QFP packages as well as caps. Components manufacturers changing the lead finish to no-Pb tend to ensure solderability with Sn

Well, it appears after running both a bare and populated PWB we were seeing flux exhaustion on the uBGA. The problem apparently resulted by a recent maintenance effort where the air blowers in the reflow oven were replaced. The blower replacement m

Marc, Topside temperature is one of the most critical parameters for a successful solder process. Temp stickers are OK to use but won�t tell you the temperature in tight areas. The temp gun like Jay suggested is what I use as a quick indicator. (Rayt

Has anyone attempted to, or successfully used a custom made (DIY) protective thermal enclosure for the Super M.O.L.E. gold profiler? We recently purchased a Bravo oven that came with everything for the ECD profiling system... except for the thermal
