Selective Wave Solder Fixtures

Benefits:

– Provide strong, stable support for the PCB throughout the wave solder process
– Permit wave solder processing of through-hole components while masking solder-side SMT components and critical board features from molten solder
– Provide thermal protection for printed circuit board areas that are heat sensitive
– Allow processing of odd-shaped PCB’s through conveyor system
– Prevent topside component movement throughout wave solder
– Align and position topside components throughout wave solder
– Increase assembly production by eliminating hand gluing and masking operations
– Ensure higher quality, repeatable process results
– Reduce bridging and skipping solder defects
– Provide safe, easy, ergonomic handling of PCB

Features:

– Pallet design keeps bottom of circuit board coplanar with the conveyor
– ESD composite construction protects sensitive components by providing controlled static discharge

– Maximum possible “Knife Edge” beveling of fixture openings, provides the best possible solder flow to component leads

– Ergonomic PCB and component holddowns

– Wave Pockets and Solder Channels
promote better solder flow

– Free PCB pocket covers provided with multi-up fixtures
