Dear Sumote, I would suggest DESCO ESD safe heat gloves, we are using them at our facility, these gloves have a polyester exterior fabric with conductive fibers to ensure static protection. Inner lining constructed of material for use in heat of 200�

Jim, I don't have direct experience with the methods you mentioned but we have used induction heating in the past and is a very effective way to heat up metals quick. This method is also very easy to automate. I did a quick search as example http://

We are using selective soldering pallet, which the soldering flux is Interflux 2005M. We encountered the poor hole fill mainly at the heat sink components. Initially we tried to apply more heat but tend to overkill the flux activity. After some modif

Tombstoning is usually caused by one joint heating to melting point before the other. Is it possible to have a lower temperature for the heat zones on the underside of the panel, so the paste is less likely to reach melting point. Does there appear t

If this is the plastic tpe cleaner, be careful of the heater rod switch. They had a tendancy to get stuck in the "on" position. This heats the tank water up. If left over the weekend, it will evaporate the water and heat the remaining plastic. Fi

By profile (profile has not been changed) are you referring to the oven zone settings or the actual charted profile of a trip through the oven as recorded by a thermal profiler? Some ovens will continue to function without warning as long as temps

Don't know that oven or if the layout is similar at all to a Heller, but in our 1500s you could lose a blower and not get an alarm until a large board blocked vertical airflow. At that point the thermocouple in the faulty zone would then lose heat

Don't confuse ROHS compliant with "able to take higher temps". In fact I think some parts lost some heat tolerance when they went ROHS compliant. Don't forget that some fire retardants are on the banned list. I do know that before we even heard of R

Yes SWAG you are right, heat could be dangerous for the parts to be removed. Any way it is not so easy to remove epoxy adhesive (3609) once it is cured. By heating the adhesive (over his TG temperature)it gets softened and by using a mec

As we have vitronics oven(SMR610A) made in dec,1997,which has 5 heating zones and 2 cooling zones. For Lead free soldering what should be our baseline for low/medium boards.we have gathered profiles from various paste manufacturers,however we don't k
