DIY Vapour Phase Frying Pan Project
<< < (8/10) > >>
mrpackethead:
This project has to be diyable. so ive been deliberate about picking things that are relatively easy to get.

For the cooling fan,  I've picked a low cost ( i got this for NZ$19 on special ) AC desk fan. (23cm).      I dont' need or want most of  it, just the motor and the fan blade.   It took a few minutes to disassemble, and got the motor out.     Differnet models are going to need a differnet approach to this.    I removed as much as i could of the osciallation unit, but have a good look at it, and dont' remove too much. In the case of this fan, i'm going to leave the plastic part attached, as while it did contain the gears for the oscillation, it also holds the rotor in place.

This is only a 30W fan.  It looks like it will provide enough useful air flow.

Can I ask what method you used to vapour reflow these prototype boards?

I reflowed them in the frying pan, with galden.. and some 'human' logic.. and a thermocouple plugged into a multimeter.

Would it be possible to give a bit more detail? I would like to do a few boards and your experiences would really help my initial trials
