what type of oven heats up meatl (solder) faster than (cured) polymer?

[Jeff S]

Hi All,

I'm working with some silicon chips and I'm looking for a type of oven
that can heat up the solder finish rather quickly (in seconds would be
great) but not so much for the body of the chips.

I was thinking that an IR furnace will probably do it but someone said
it could do just the opposite.

Can someone here answer this question for me?

Thanks!

yes, its the IR ovens that you buy. i guess they make pretty good flow
evens.
