Designed for new SMT engineers/technicians or current ones who want a better understanding of the reflow process, the tutorial will focus on the fundamentals of solder reflow and reflow oven operation. Dimock will discuss recipes vs. profiles, heat transfer and oven control, why profiles are shaped the way they are and how to obtain profiles. Additional topics of discussion will include thermocouple accuracy and mounting, profilers, test vehicles, eutectic vs. lead-free process windows and process repeatability.
