1500EXL
The Heller 1500EXL is a forced convection reflow oven in the EXL Series. The 1500EXL provides five heating zones, one internal cooling zone, and five thermocouple profiling. The 1500EXL supports line speeds up to 28 inches (70 cm) per minute.[1][2]
What it is
The Heller 1500EXL is a forced convection reflow oven in Heller's EXL Series. The Heller 1500EXL is used for reflow soldering. The Heller 1500EXL provides five heating zones, one internal cooling zone, and five thermocouple profiling. The Heller 1500EXL supports line speeds up to 28 inches per minute.[3][4]
How it works
General reference — not yet source-verifiedReflow ovens heat assembled circuit boards with controlled convection so solder paste melts and then solidifies into completed electrical and mechanical joints. Forced convection reflow tools move heated gas through a tunnel over boards carried on a conveyor, and the process profile is shaped through successive heating and cooling regions.
Where it fits in the process flow
General reference — not yet source-verifiedReflow soldering follows solder paste deposition and component placement in surface-mount electronic assembly. Reflow ovens sit before inspection, test, and later board handling steps because the oven stage forms the permanent solder joints for the assembled board.
Applications
The Heller 1500EXL is used for reflow soldering in electronic assembly.[3]
