Looking at the different Selective solder machines. Are there any process considerations with a moving pot versus a fixed pot. What about the angle and peel off on the moving pot?

We have a Vitronics mySelective machine (model 6749, or "the Fat Bastard" as we affectionately call it). It's configurable with various combinations of "select wave" and "multi wave" pots. Ours has one of each. The "select wave" is for the most pa
