Up until this point, my company has been hand soldering all of our assemblies. We are a high reliability manufacturer and work to the IPC-610 Class three/ target. We just received a Reflow Solder Batch Oven. It is a small oven, a Gold-Flow GF-B. I ha

"mostly an irritant" can be serious for some people. You can get other toxins from PCBs if you char them but you would have mentioned if they came out burnt. Was there any exhaust on the oven at all? I have seen it where we used a particularly stink

I really need a replacement Manual for a Electrovert Omni 5 reflow oven vintage 1999. I would be happy to pay someone for it. I would even be fine with a copied version of the manual, and I would pay for that. If someone has a manual and is willing t

If the board is just not reaching the temps you need, you could place them in an oven to "preheat" them. When I was building a rather thick board with a copper core I had to do this. Since we were only doing small runs it was feasible, I don't know y

They work great as long as your conveyor speed has been calibrated and checked on some type of PM schedule. On some oven types these sensors can warn you to possible problems with the conveyor speed. Say the oven is calculating that the board is movi

Thank you Clare. After doing some more research, I found they are known in the industry as "Carriers". I did look into that durostone material. They prices are beyond reasonable. My trek now is seeking a material to make planks out of to lay the b

While I agree that you need to see an MD ASAP, it might help your provider to actually know what you were breathing, and I would worry way less about the materials in the components than I would about the flux from the solder paste. Edited to add, a

For what it's worth, we have 5 Vitronics ovens. XPM2, 2+, 3I, 3M. Our Oldest is an XPM2-1030 as mentioned. We have never replaced a fan motor. We've been running it for 3 shifts for 16 years. A couple of the gearboxes for the conveyor width have been
