Moisture and internal stress damage bare PCBs before they reach the line. Verified baking temperatures, storage windows and stacking rules for SMT assembly.
How the S-RO200 lead-free reflow oven delivers a repeatable profile: heater construction, eight-zone architecture and the IPC temperature window for SMT reflow.

The STE-800 is a dual-lane, 16-zone (8 top / 8 bottom) lead-free reflow oven from Southern Machinery, built for EMS, ODM and OEM SMT lines that need tight thermal profiles, dual-rail throughput and PC-based process traceability. This guide explains what the STE-800 is used for, where it fits in a full PCB assembly line, the datasheet specifications that matter, and the selection parameters to confirm before you specify one.

Reflow flux residue gradually clogs the coolers and filters inside every reflow oven, cutting cooling efficiency, slowing conveyor speed, and driving up rework on boards that exit too hot. The SME-5500 Automated Reflow O

Cleaning reflow oven coolers by hand is slow, inconsistent, and labor-intensive. The SME-5500 Automated Washer from Southern Machinery automates the process, cutting labor hours, improving thermal performance, and extend
