I am trying to put a center support on a wave solder machine for lead free soldering. My problem is that every metal I use is interacting with the lead-free metals and thus eating away the center support. I have tried titanium, stainless steel. I am

How about graphite coated wires or bar? If there are such things

Sn corrosion effects were studied for stainless steels, coated stainless steels, titanium, cast iron, and other materials. This study can be found in the SMT Library under "Equipment Impacts of Lead-Free Soldering" Electrovert uses a Melonite coating

Try: Tungsten, tungsten carbide, ceramics like boron-nitride or how about pyrex glass? Glass blowers could make "hooks" that connect to a cross bar. I would NOT use aluminum (even if anodized). Try stainless steel 316. 303, 304 do not have enough

I would try a PTFE (Teflon) wire or Teflon protected wire or you could try anodized aluminum. Its getting more and more interesting how the lead free era develops. Just a thought I wander how long its going to take the tin (not passivated with lead)

Is there anyone out there using this ? It looks like they only sell it for the 643 machines. Can it be adapted for 642 machines as well ? We have 2 major problems: 1. Operator makes width change adjust without removing supports from previous job. Ta

Yes. I used to use em on our old 286. The side clamps work very well with them and our missing parts from support pin problem went away. It was our #1 defect a few years ago. 100%ing work orders for missing parts sucks.

We have been using Grid Loks on our MPM Accuflex machines and see an offset in the print every so often. Haven't been able to isolate the problem. How bad was the misprint and how was it related to the grid loks? Thanks

Hi. We have a medium to high volyme production with a lot of different boards to run inour lines. We do some prototypes as well but not as our main production. We have a lot of change over time that we try to reduce and as far as it's not double side

No problem on the feedback. Should I just reply to the same thread or email you directly at DEK? This is my first time using this site, but I imagine they have the capability to attach files, pictures, etc. I will probably be completing the study
