Just wanted to take a quick poll, as to how others are taking flux density measurements on their wave solder machines.(those that don't have flux density contollers) We are using a glass hydrometer, but I see there is a digital model on the market.

hi, the only way you can say that the process is in/out of control is to plot the values (mean) of a metric against the 3 sigma limits for a Xbar chart, or plot a individuals run chart. you can also do a capability analysis nased on a metric (say,

Samir, You are a nut! I wouldn't cut your hands off! I asked because I was wondering about the stability and repeatability of the wave machine itself being used as the standard. I do understand Gage R&R or at least I think I do that was why I aske

thank you for the reply.....this reinforces the same info about SAC305 that i had reviewed in other papers. Since this is an inherent property of SAC305, i am assuming 1. Wave parameter (temp/time) tweaking will not mitigate this? 2. what is differ

I have been looking at wave pallets with titanium inserts. I was told about another more recent and less expensive insert using aluminum. The aluminum is coated with some sort of material to prevent the solder from sticking. Is this anodized? Does an

Well, im not sure what plane you guys are on, but I can back up my what im talking about. Ya see I wnet to Soltec traingin back in 1995 for our new wave. I got a diploma proofing that I know what i'm talking about. no one else in my company has on

I recently acquired an older Dover Soltec 6522/23cc wave solder machine. The machine appears to be in good working order and I thought I would get it running to use as a backup. Can anyone tell me where I might get an operators manual. I have the

HI, just my 0,00001 cents Which preheat system does your wave solder has? for instance ? - IR ? - Bottom only ? - IR + Forced Air ? (bottom) - IR + Forced Air (bottom) IR top ? PCB thickness ? Appropriate preheat is important when looking to f

What is the best or ideal cleaning method for wave solder pallets? I have been using iso prop and am not sure if this is the cause for having brittle wall material. I wouldn't think alcohol would degrade the durastone material. Most of my pallets hav

Hi, The only problem with wave is loading the parts, and SMT is lower cost, and faster. We use wave for connectors through, and it works great, as it's fast when there is lots of connectors. I think he's panelizing, so he should be cool on doing m
