Earl & Jeff Our machine is different than the Electrovert Solder Pak in that it is does not behave like a "volcano". Jeff, please contact me if you have safety concerns as perhaps you also want to consider our equipment. | | I'm trying a second ti

| What approach do you you use to reducing wave solder dross? What is your experience with Klennox? | Dave F Dave, I use Kleenox on my Air-Vac Volcanic Soldering pots. The stuff works great. It significantly reduces the amount of dross you remove

Adding to Mike's comments. There are two types of selective wave soldering machines. * Chimney type, like the AirVac and Wenesco that Mike used. They use a boot to funnel the solder to the component to be soldered. * Programmable head type [ie, ERS

I am in the process of sourcing and ordering a BGA rework station. I only have exprerience with the OK-Industries (Now Metcal) BGA-3500 BGA rework system. Any experience/input on other comparable systems would be much appreciated (Pace TF3000, Air-

Maxtim, the rework stations you mentioned are the lower end low cost units, all great machines. Now days you can get a real deal in the used market on the top of the line models offered in rework stations. There are three rework station that I consid

Michael, We have a DRS-24 and are very happy with it. Look at the wobble in the nose cone that holds the nozzles and make sure it does not move. This will degrade your placement acuracy. The machine is very process oriented meaning that you can not

Well the powers that be actually want to go with a regular rework station, for future growth. I guess they plan on using BGAs sometime in the near future. We're also planning on using a D-Pak device in this first board. So now we're looking at the

Thanks for the reply, Russ. I looked at the Air-Vac web site. I am looking for something that is a lot more basic than their machine. I had seen a small table top wave machine at a customers shop a few years ago. It had a pump and different si
