With oven temps rising due to Lead-Free Processing, I'm looking for some information on high temp Reflow Oven lubricants. I've found some info in the Fine SMTnet Archives on Chain Lubricants, (Mostly Synthetic Motor Oils), but I'm wondering what othe

Hi all, I will do my best to answer questions on MS2 here. I will try to check back at least every other day. The MS2 does not mix with the solder. It only reacts with the dross. It does not get down into the pumps. It was just formally anounced la

Most ovens I know use oil to lubricate conveyor chain, not grease. Anyway, is this what you're using: NMG No Melt Grease NLGI 2 (operates from -20�C to +270�C) NMG is a long-fibred highly adhesive grease which does not melt or drip at high temperat

I agree with Pete, I prefer to use High Temp Lubricant. Because it more clean compare to High Temp Grease. Usually i only do a few drip for 3-5 days, because purpose of lubricant is to make chain & shaft smooth.Since Biral is expensive lubricant i us

Hi Everyone What lubricants do your maintenance people use for the chains in your Reflow ovens? The manuals for our ovens have one recommendation - but I am always open to other people�s experiences and recommendations. Another option may be easie

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

Hi all We have an Omniflo 5 (-97 vintage) with pin chain conveyor. Lately the chain drive motor has started to emit some chirping noises, as if there were a bearing running dry or something. Is there some kind of maintenance schedule specified for t

what I have usually found although not from wave conveyor chains but from racing motorcycles is that binding is caused by wear and bending and not dirt unless it is excessive to the point that you can actually see the dirt that is binding it. When t

As you have seen, the 1088 doesn't need much in the way of P.M. We recommend: --Monthly vacuuming in the base and under the hood (ie Dust Bunny control) --Lubricate Edge Hold Conveyor Chain and leadscrew (if the Edge Hold Conveyor option is installe
