interesting Bill, will keep an eye out. Was not necessarily saying anything about Chinese product, just the engineering, I have seen a few Chinese "Vitronics" ovens and yes they seemed to be put together very well, I was only mentioning how it/the

I do need to agree with you. There are definetly clones out there. Som look identical on the outside. And there could be serious concerns about support. One bad hard drive can turn a machine into scrap if you can not get s/w or support. People n

Well said. From my experience, the Chinese would ship out of spec. product knowing full well it does not meet the requirement. If we catch it, good for us . . . otherwise we are #@%$%#. The Japanese (and others) on the other hand would rather pull

If you have flux deposits on the cooling plates, try out Zestron's VIGON RC101...It is an extremely good product especially for reflow ovens and wave solder systems. Check it out...Minimal maintenance water based chemistry with no flash point...Much

Im not sure if someone has posted this topic before. Anyway,we plan to make capability study on our wave-soldering machine but we have no experience on how to do it effectively. My question is what we should consider most among the critical parameter

WRONG! Actually I was going to say the same thing but figured I would have the standard 3 people dissagreeing with me, and or correcting me. I do believe your wave solder temp should remain a constant temp and prolly will not vary at all, so I woul

Yes, you can use lead-free parts in a leaded process. And the other is true as well, no-lead free parts in a leaded process. BUT, you should not use leaded parts through a non-lead wave solder process and of course, your board will not be RoSH.

We have TR-460A. We do not use it very often, because of the level of experience of our troop. It is useful for companies looking to develop, structure, and organize their wave soldering process troubleshooting skills. The information in TR-460A is n

Try lifting the part with a small piece of paper. I've seen caps that did this and giving the flux a way to vent out the top side of the board got rid of the blow holes. It'll take ya 2 seconds to to try - that plus the 3 minutes to wave solder.

Anyone know of a place to get a replacement pot for an Electrovert Econopak II SMT? Preferably a titanium pot? We currently have a machine that is running SN100C and it seems to be developing some pitting in the metal of the pot. We would like to
