The RO300FC full convection reflow oven has four zones (three heating and one cooling), for all soldering and curing tasks. An inert gas model is also available, and changeovers between air and nitrogen are said to take less than 5 minutes.
The unit is 78.8 x 28 x 47.2". Solder width is 11.8", transport speed is 4 - 31.5".min.
Between heating zones is a "stream seal" that permits temperature differences between two zones up to 90°C (194°F).
Comes with optional RO-CONTROL software, which simulates new processes prior to soldering and graphically compares temperature profiles.

The Juki 350 selective soldering system comes standard with an X,Y, Z and A axis servo drive and is equipped with all the functionality necessary to begin production immediately. Includes a soldering unit that features forced hot air nitrogen preheat at the mini-wave nozzle. Nitrogen preheat limits dross buildup, opening the process window and reducing maintenance. An innovative nitrogen management system is used to reduce nitrogen consumption. Other standard features include a spray fluxer or micro-dot drop jet fluxer mounted on an individual A axis servo drive; 5-liter pressurized flux tank; an exchangeable quick exchange mini-wave nozzle from 4 to 30 mm in diameter (custom nozzles are available by request); exchangeable Pb-free ready solder pot with 110 lb. capacity; auto feeder solder roll for maintaining solder pot feed level; a wave height on/off control feature; online/offline programming software that can accept images such as JPG, BMP, TIF, as well as Gerber files for easy programming with a simple to use GUI; and a float sensor for keeping constant levels of solder in the pot at all times. Comes with dual nozzle and dual fluxing capability.

PCS peelable coating mask is a flexible synthetic acrylic latex designed to withstand coating and wave soldering processes. Is water-based and environmentally friendly. On application the mask is orange and darkens once cured. Said to it peel easily after curing. Reportedly noncorrosive to most substrates, with good solvent resistance. For masking components, connectors and other items during a conformal coating process. Is suitable for dip, spray or brush applied conformal coatings.
