Any idea on price for the Optimizer? Does the LCD have any issues with top side preheat? Thanks

Having a selective solder machine without a preheat sounds ODD. Preheats are pretty important to drive off flux volatiles and activate the flux so it cleans the parts ready for the solder to wet to them. If you have no preheat then you must be expec

We had the same problem with one of our boards with ground planes so that it required preheat using a hotplate before hand soldering. Then I learned about the Metcal MX-5000 series soldering irons. I was skeptical at first but we can now solder the s

Caurbach, Higher preheat and longer dwelltime will fix your problem.

Did you try increasing the top side preheaters?

Looks possibly like the ground is sucking the heat away. look at your preheat? is it getting to 120c before wave?

but we do not have laminate preheating on robots. There is no flux separate application, the flux is in the soldering wire

You will need to preheat the boards for a lead free selective solder process. A preheat module is critical for any wave or selective solder process, if you don't get the board preheated properly the solder is going to resist flowing to the top of the

Note that the TF2800 features a large 7 panel preheater with an adjustable height component that allows you to adjust the height of the IR preheater to get much closer to the board. This feature multiples the power of the preheater exponentially, so
