Does anyone have used Heller 1700SX (2001) or Heller 1700EXL (1999) for lead free? I found some references in this forum for Heller 1500 but anything for last ovens, just wondering if they can be used though they may run slow.

The concern about lead contamination of lead-free solder has to with zone refining. For more, look here: http://www.smtnet.com/forums/Index.cfm?CFApp=1&Message_ID=30315

I was unaware of any Pb-Free process capable FR-1 laminate... not to mention capable of Though Hole plating that would be expected when wave soldering. What is the Td and Z-expansion for the laminate you are using?

I am trying to put a center support on a wave solder machine for lead free soldering. My problem is that every metal I use is interacting with the lead-free metals and thus eating away the center support. I have tried titanium, stainless steel. I am

Can anyone point me in the direction to find some IPC standards for lead free solder joint reliablity tests, such as shear tests, pull tests, vibe tests, enviroment tests, etc. I need to know what the specs. are on all aspects of reliability and how

Sounds like the vision is having trouble deciphering what is the component and what is the background. The problem is what if the plating is inconsistent (sounds like it is)? In this case with front (reflective) lighting the problem may never be so

Guy's another question, how about any recommendation what type of adhesive to use as underfill for BGA during lead free process? Currently, we are only using Loctite 3609 & 3515 as adhesive we use 3515 as BGA underfill during normal leaded process s

We are using a Heller 1707EXL for both lead and lead-free assemblies with no problems. The zones can reach the temperatures needed for lead free. The belt speed can be adjusted so I'm not sure about your "run slow" comment. Maybe the 1707 is diffe

Hi What is the surface finish you have? Following are true if you have HASL-LeadFree surface. I have had the same problem 3years ago and we did some micro-sectioning for further analysis, still the boards are functioning properly. But you have to
