Hey all, I've made a post in the past about us expanding to a new space, but I wanted to do a new post with specific questions. We currently have a DEK 265, Phillips Opal Xii, and a Heller 1500. Our main reason for expanding is to have a lead-free

We have two ZipaTec 460s Selective Solder Machines, one for Lead and one for Lead-Free. This morning we noticed the solder pot was covered in solder balls, and after asking the operator what they had run, the answer was "Nothing." The operator had al

We run Zipatec 460's also. I presume that you are running Nitrogen? We have found that if the Nitrogen flow rate is too high into the conical nozzle collar it can be sufficient to disrupt the smooth flow of the solder as it runs down the wettable o

I have an Ersa Versaflow selective solder machine (single bath) which runs via a Profibus control system. I have checked all of the settings on the inverter, and all of the connections and outputs throughout the machine, but the machine returns a 68

We are using our selective solder machine to solder a backplane with sixteen (16) 4x48 pin 0.080" connectors. Our first pass yield is about 85% meaning that 85% of the connectors come out with no bridges. Not quite as fine pitch as your connector a

It's been a few years, but lack of preheat was my problem with this machine.

Hi, guys. Does anyone use a EBSO selective soldering machines? Can you write your parameters for two rows connector? Thx!

I got some info about it last year. I could not justify ROI since this machine was way too expensive (same thing with Vitronics Selective machines). You need to see if this machine will increase your throughput or not depending on your products. Al

We are experiencing widely varying First Pass Yields for selective soldering. Some boards are near 100% while others are less than 50% depending on the pitch and general complexity of the board. Question: If you are running 100 boards through your s

Hello! We have a strange effect. Some pads of big trough-hole DDR slot just dessapear. Initialy it was soldered with selective soldering process (leaded, 290 degrees, ImSn finish, very short storage). Then some connectors with poor barrel fill we hav
