Be mindful that this machine is no longer support by the mfr. Electrovert/Hollis. There may be some support by third parties in the U.K. Its not a USA designed machine. It has a stainless steel pot, so it will need a titanium liner and new solder noz

are you using composite pallets in the wave or oil/wax around the pump impellar? cheers greg

I want to say that waaaayy back when we had an issue like that and it was time to clean the pot. The operator would speed the pump up over time to compensate but it only really helped in the middle of the wave.

Hi all, it has been a bit of a delay but I've finally had a chance to do some further investigation on this. First off, we spend some time to clean the solder bath using Kester Solder Saver and scooped out a lot of crap. We then added about 5kg of

| | Does anyone have info on the rotary chip wave(compare/contrast to z wave.....)? | John, | In my humble opinion, rotary chip waves are the best thing since forced convection. Great coverage; never clog. And here's a really cool perk: the rotary

Likely, but if your dross production is mostly due to pumping a high wave, or, due to a system that is configured to produce a lot of dross from the solder wave return to the pot, pump shaft interface or an aggressive chip wave, then maybe wax will n

| Surprisingly enough, ever since the addition of an omega wave, we solder those often-troublesome SOT23's just fine and dandy.. anyways, long-term, well be getting a universal GDM which uses positive displacement pumps..currently we're using fuji g

Morning All Attended APEX this year and this quesiton came up quite a bit from users. I had some conversations with my co-workers on the wave side and others at the show. Dross is an oxide, lighter than the metals so it floats just as pmdeuel st

This may not be a solution to your problem, but something from my tuner car days jumped into my head. If you are running at 100% and not getting the height you need, change out one (or both) of your pulleys. A bigger pulley at the motor side, or a sm

I believe I read somewhere, that using leadfree solder in the wave, the dross will actually collect in the bottom of the solderpot. I can't remember where I read this (maybe a nightmarrish dream I had one night). If so, how do you remove it from the
