The magnetic thing from the sot23 thread made me think of somthing from the past. Does anyone have any experience with vibrating boards during reflow? I know for a fact that if you vibrate a board during reflow it will alow the parts to "float" and

adlsmt You have stated that an OEM will not sell you a part for a used machine that was built by the OEM and is still supported per the OEM�s standard part policy unless you buy a contract. I will admit I find that hard to believe. Unless you are

I would discourage the use of city water at all - where rinsing electronic parts is concerned, it contains too much contamination. If practical, route DI water to your first tank and implement some aggitation (either nitrogen bubbles from the bottom

Adam, As for stripping the boards.. get them right to start with. Believe me you don't want to clean them. If you have to remove the coating most conformal coating brands offer a removal agent that has been tested on most all component ranges. IF yo

Hi Dave, 1. As far as speed of removing componants, we use a board preheater to bring board temp to about 150 C. Then add a flux and then flood all 4 sides of the componant with the low temp solder. Using a suction tool the part comes right off. The
