Excessive Heat / Thermal Excursions From Baking | 3 September, 2021

Hello Everyone, We are building devices to remove moisture from boards prior to rework where it does not require the use of ovens as stated in IPC-TM-650, Method 2.6.28. Instead of evaporation, we use moisture magnets to pull out the part......even diffused moisture. This way we reduce chances of damaging the board and creating pockets for bad thinks to happen. Looking for engineers and tech folks to share their comments on heat damage from excessive baking.

The most common issue with baking parts for removing moisture too much, is oxidation of the leads. But I haven't seen that too much.

I'm really curious what moisture magnets are and how they work.
