Not sure it's always a great route as the smaller ovens are going to struggle to get a perfect profile for a consistent result, especially on bigger boards with higher layer counts and mixed technology. You may want to take a quick look at a batch va

At the company that I work at we have used rehm ovens and been very happy with the results. The one we have now has 8 zones with 2 to 4 cooling zones. I can check tomorrow what oven it is. The company produce a lot of different batches of PCBS, from

I have seen this before. Check: --Vibration of belt --Interference (part getting "brushed off" while reflowing bottom-side components --Some glues' cross-linking mechanism is impaired by the flux during migration in reflow, redering the glue useless

We have been using a Heller 1707EXL (7 zones + 1 cooldown zone) for lead free (ROHS) soldering since 2007 with good results. I wouldn't go any lower than 7 heat zones though. If I may brag a bit....The IPC-7095 revision C standard was released a fe

Just a comment on the Heller 1500. We had 3 at a previous workplace where we never made the Pb-free transition (this was early 2000's). The ovens we had were not designed for and were never used for Pb-free processing yet every one of them had all o

I measured the temperature rise when I built the unit and it has a nice linear rise in temperature over the 3 minutes. I have used the Quikees before. The galcon gas stinks and must be evacuated. The galcon is expensive. The galcon is a perflourocar

Hello all, My company specializes in pcb design and subsequent prototype assembly. With that core of business, we will assemble up to 10 boards a week. We currently hand solder and use a reflow hotplate for these boards. We have been getting reques
