We have two Wave Solder machines and still use the FOAMING flux, but the formula we used to use was discontinued, and the one we are currently using isn't as good. I'm hoping that others are still foaming and will share what flux formula they are us

Hello: I am wondering what you all do with your flux stone at the end of the day? Do you remove the unit and store it in DI water or your thinner for the flux? Do you leave the stone in and just add your thinner to get to the correct specific gravity

Thinner: Flux thinner, NOT paint thinner We kept a spare stone in thinner in inventory. We cut PVC pipe to size, cap in one end, screw thread on the other, stone inside, filled with flux thinner and covered with a screw cap. I don't remember who we

Are you running a water or alcohol based flux? We run a water based product and it stays in the tank with the stone all week and is emptied and cleaned at the end of the production week. Never once have I stored the stone in thinner and I've never

First, an earlier poster suggested using DI water. We are NOT excited about DI water with a NC fluxer, unless DI water is the proper flux thinner. Second, as you inplied, the maintenance steps you take should vary according to the amount of time th

Hi DaveF, Thanks a Good to Great approach. I would still recommend getting another one, just in case. I am never too sure about how anyone follows procedures and maybe the start up just won't go well for some reason and you don't want to piddle a

Hi everyone, We just got our first wave soldering machine operational (novastar 8s) and its working great. I'm just a little unsure about how to best maintain the foam fluxer daily. Do you drain it from the machine each day or just cover the flux t
