Some key data is needed 1) how often does the HS 50 machines run? 24/7? 2)How many placements are being performed? I know for a fact Siemens Siplace S/F platforms require weekly preventative maintenance. Knowing the sophistication of the HS platform

I have the opportunity to pick up a used 1998 Heller 1900WN reflow. I have no experience working with Heller reflows, nor have I heard much about them, so I don't know if they are good quality machines or not. I have concerns about issues such as z

Hello Peter, In reflow, running a profile and collecting thermal data does not necessarily make it easy to calculate and determine machine capability. On the contrary to your desires of simplifying the process, determining machine capability on an ov
