G'day, I am interested in hearing about the automatic lubrication of the chains in a reflow oven. The systems I have seem to work to a certain degree. They either lubricate too much, so we end up getting oil on the edges of the PCB, or not enough, w

For what it's worth, we have 5 Vitronics ovens. XPM2, 2+, 3I, 3M. Our Oldest is an XPM2-1030 as mentioned. We have never replaced a fan motor. We've been running it for 3 shifts for 16 years. A couple of the gearboxes for the conveyor width have been

We use Biral B10-30. It smokes and smells the first time the oven heats up after oiling the chain. What we do is open up the windows and turn on a floor fan so the smoke blows out.

FYI: This seems to be worse depending on the oven....I think it may have to do with the way the machine exhaust. I have used the Fuchs on our Omniflow and on our XPM's.(Pb Free profiles) The Omniflow stinks the whole shop up....the Vitronics do not s
