We have the opportunity to buy a new selective solder machine and are used to using a very old Jade machine with a moving tank and wetted nozzle. I have two process concept questions: Which is better- move the board over the nozzle or move the nozz

Thanks for all the remarks. I am tending toward the move the pot method. I am concerned about parts tilting from square if moved or held at an angle. I won't need to deal with board pallets, board clamp mechanisms, etc. Plus I found the moving board

I use a two machines from EBSO, Germany. It's a machines with PCB carrier, so, solder pot is fixed. I'm fully satisfied with this equipment, but I use only wettable nozzles. If you would like to buy a new machine, not in used condition, EBSO will be

I will soon be filling an electrovert solder module which is only going to be running one (lambda) nozzle/pump. this leaves quite a bit of solder volume I am going to have to put $$ into. Has anyone here used iron bars or spacers or bricks or other
