We're in the process of purchasing a couple new reflow ovens. The ovens that we're looking at have a standard clearance of 1.00"(25.4mm), when using the Edge Rail Conveyor. We can pay a few bucks extra in increase that to 1.5" (38.1mm). I think that is a worthwhile investment, even though our current products wouldn't need this added clearance. My question to you all is this...what is the tallest component that you are currently placing?

Hello,

about 20mm - some kind of inductance for this week. If I were you, I would check another brands of ovens too. I mean why the clearance is so small and why they want to charge you for their mistakes? I would insist to do that for free. Next week there could be something 28mm. You never know.

Good luck
