I'm sure this isn't the same situation, but we did have a selective solder machine with crazy dross and solder ball build up. Turns out the operator switched the low pressure nitrogen line used for solder level and the high pressure nitrogen line fo

�..... their material acts as a barrier to oxidation," is wrong Mr. N. The MS2 material "consumes" oxides therefore removing the oxides from the dross by chemical reaction and releases the pure alloy. It is not a barrier and does not mix into the sol

Hi all, I will do my best to answer questions on MS2 here. I will try to check back at least every other day. The MS2 does not mix with the solder. It only reacts with the dross. It does not get down into the pumps. It was just formally anounced la

Has anybody tried this stuff? I was asked about it this morning and it sounds plausible from their website, minus "The small volume of spent material can then be inexpensively shipped back to P. Kay Metal for recycling" part. Website: http://www.p

Greetings all, Dross has no value to the assembler. It actually degrades quality as a clean solder pot provides a more consistent process. Yes, removing dross does remove some metallic contaminates but that is overkill, like throwing away your refrig

Hello, I'm looking for a mechanical system for fifo management of solder paste in warehouse in order to eliminate human errors while putting solder paste jars in fridges.

I recently witnessed a process in which the solder pot operator used Techspray WSOL water soluble masking to cover the areas around a connector that was to be soldered on the solder pot. He did not wait for the WSOL to cure. He soldered immediately.

Most robust wave soldering machines will cope with lead free alloys. The temperatures in air that we have run has been between 260-265C. In my opinion the dross generation has not been significantly effected. I was doing a workshop for a well known

Hello! About Dross reducing(recycle)everyone can check the following patent. US PATENT # 616,161 1898 year!!!! Also, from the contemprorary patents, US PATENT # 6,942,791 and some others. If using MS2 molten solder surfactant, every week you wi

We use both types in house. We started with a board moving over the pot, slowly moved on to Jade machines and eventually Synchrodex. Like you mentioned without palletizing you'll have component movements during the cylce and most likely won't have th
