Seeing a product such as this and thinking about simple engineering. Every lightning rod I have ever seen on a building, home, tower, etc... had this long metal device called a "conductive wire" that runs into the ground. I'll stick with the ligh

45 seconds from 230-245C. Check your paste material of choice for recomended profile peak temp and TAL. If you have not selected a lead free material check out the major paste suppliers on their lead free material offering and review the specs.

CGO Assuming your system is performing well here are a few ideas to help out your profile.... - Pull the material spec and ensure you are meeting the requirements for times and temp. Many times the material will allow a mild soak of the board prior

smt You should have no issue using your exsisting oven for both leaded and lead free materials if the machine is capable of delivering the desired profiles. One aspect that makes a "lead free" oven is the design of the system. Ability to reach th

Hi James Short answer... yes... long answer...impingement velocity is excellent for heat transfer but it also is a higher risk of moving components. Variable speed blowers allow you to reduce the speed / impingment and more than likly your compone

Gary Getting the specs for a used machine will be tough from Ersa but at least send them a note, the seller should also be able to get the info for you. In regards a 5 zone system. I would suggest at least 7+ zones if your moving to lead free.

This has always been a big debate on what is better. Few things to consider before getting into number of zones. What is the throughput and cooling requirements? Throughput is a direct relation to length of heating zone. Longer heating length

All data loggers will be warmer at the higher lead free temps. Only two ways around this... better thermal barriers or fans after the profile to cool it down. Some places do not allow fans on the production floor due to static electricity, in that

A few years ago with the 1st and 2nd generations of lead free material N2 was highly recommened. Now most of the materials suppliers have good formulations that are just fine in air reflow. I would still run a DOE though... just to be sure. Als
