We are looking at buying a used HELLER 1800 reflow oven. It is currently set up for 480v and our facility is 208v. I know we can either get it retrofitted or buy a step up transformer. Is retrofitting the machine simply moving a tap on the inter

Hello Rob, I was able to get the machine to zero, apparently replacing the circuit board on head 2 conflicted with head one even matching the jumper settings to the old board. Once I marked the head as not mounted, head 1 zeroed. I re-checked the ju

Hi there! If they are just standard headers there's a company called Teka that makes headers and socket headers with solder preforms in them. They call it "Solder Bearing Lead Technology" You can drop them in the board and reflow them just like SMT p

Basically ISO doesn't care what you are building. They only care that you document what/how you are building it and follow that documentation every time. Recently my company lost some EMS business because we were not ISO certified even though we do
