Call Heller directly, and give them the oven, and relative thermal density of the board, as well as the solder paste that you're using. They'll be able to give you a baseline profile to start from (both RTS and RSS). Otherwise, use a thermocouple p

Presumably you're talking about lead free, but you don't say. Heller can probably provide you with a starting point, as rob has already pointed out, but you do need to develop the capability to perform profiling yourself. That oven should have ECD

Heller Oven comes with a profile pre-loaded so you can start there. RTS = Ramp to Spike. Basically a straight line from preheat to spike. Also known as “Tent” profile RSS = Ramp Soak Spike. This one creates a flat line around 150-180 degrees on th

Talk to your paste manufacturer, they can recommend a reflow profile (as well as advise the paste activation temperature, and liquidous reflow points. The ENIG finish should not affect your reflow parameters any more than the solder paste. Typicall

You can, and for small parts you probably won't see much difference between body temp. and lead temp. For QFPs or PLCCs there will be a much greater delta, though. I'd be more concerned with the small surface area you're making contact on (spherica

We are in the process of launching a new product and found reflow solder issue with one of the inductors. I have set oven profile to paste specifications. I just finished profiling with thermocouple under problem component. All other components ex

It's right there in front of you. Not enough overall temperature across the board. No wetting issue is evident, just looks like you need to turn up the heat, as Dave has mentioned. SOB has mentioned the issues surrounding the Electrolytic caps, ch

As long as you have a continuous profile with required soak and dwell periods, the zone lengths do not matter. For lead free, usually ramp to peak is preffered.that is with minimum soak (you can not avoid soak anyway. You can achieve the profiles irr

BTU as well as most oven manufactuers have great products. If they fit what your looking for and can give you good support(preferably local) then you should not really see any quality problems with their products. With the oven max temperature of 300

The 237*C is under the inductor with aTAL of 48s. I worked on the profiles this morning an got the max temp up a few degrees and the TAL to 62s. I will check the body temp of the Elec caps. The rest of the board has a max temp of 247. Thanks Gm
