What it is
General reference — not yet source-verifiedA reflow oven is a thermal processing machine used in electronics manufacturing to heat assemblies according to a controlled temperature profile. Reflow ovens are generally positioned after paste deposition and component placement so solder can melt, wet interconnects, and then solidify under controlled cooling.
How it works
General reference — not yet source-verifiedA reflow oven conveys product through heated sections that raise assembly temperature in stages, followed by controlled cooling. Reflow ovens commonly use forced convection to transfer heat to the work while the transport system carries the product through the thermal path. Atmosphere control can be used when oxidation control or process stability is important.
Where it fits in the process flow
General reference — not yet source-verifiedA reflow oven sits in the assembly flow after solder paste printing and component placement. A reflow oven thermally joins components to the substrate before downstream inspection, test, and any cleaning or conformal coating steps that may follow.
Applications
General reference — not yet source-verifiedReflow ovens are used for solder attachment of surface mounted electronic components on populated circuit assemblies. Reflow ovens are also used where a controlled thermal cycle is needed to activate and solidify solder joints across mixed product loads while maintaining repeatable heating conditions.

Frequently asked questions
What is the maximum throughput speed of the Heller 1800 EXL?
The oven supports conveyor speeds up to 40 inches (one meter) per minute.[5]
What types of atmosphere does the 1800 EXL support?
The oven supports both air and nitrogen atmospheres, providing identical profile performance in either.[5]
How many temperature recipes can the oven store?
The oven can store up to 500 temperature recipes and 500 profile graphs.[5]
What type of flux filtration system does the oven use?
The oven has an easy-clean flux filtration system with a disposable filter that removes up to 95% of flux from the atmosphere and can be replaced while the oven is running.[5]
