We have a new Heller 1809 EXL reflow oven and when we run MELF�s or Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitors through the oven they are being blown off the pads. I have verified that the placement is good before reflow. I verified that they are pushed down

Depending on Zone Temperatures, Belt Speed, and Board Density... Some Convection Ovens will drop Zone Temperatures faster than others. They recover by increasing Air Circulation. This can make parts fall off the Bottom-Side that otherwise would

Is there a sort of standard method to prevent part loss in reflow? I've had a couple of situations come up recently where we've lost some parts during second-side processing. We're running an Heller 1800, with a mesh belt. Most items process fine,

With our last two ovens (Heller and now BTU) spanning the past 7 or 8 years I did it once a month and have never seen any issues. Reflow ovens these days with PID controllers know exactly what they are doing inside well before you run a profiler thro

Hi, I am trying to reduce some 0402 cap tombstones. The main cause is the pad spacing is a little too far apart and the parts are as tall as they are wide .5mm I am stuck with the pad spacing for a while. All other parts are soldering well, even 0

Craig, We currently have an older Heller 1800 and quite like it in production. It easily handles our lead free products, and has enough flexibility to handle both heavy boards and lighter boards. Thermal profiling is relatively easy. I'm told the

I personally would be wary of heller1707EXL and as I have many customers that find them not too repeatable due to cross profile variance... MarkIII not sure about. Always check perspective oven for this if you can...simple trick is to run blank PC

I'm looking at used reflow ovens. I'm homing in on Vitronics. We're pretty self-sufficient in terms of keeping machines going, but does anyone have experience with parts and documentation support for Vitronics? Is there a fee for getting into the sys

We have an old (dinosaur, 1992 vintage) heller 988 that we use for shrinking heat shrink, curing, low temperature stuff. We need another similar oven for expanded production. Essentially any reliable, running, non-lead-free three four or five zone ov

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
