Any concerns on the IR in melting connectors etc. simply cover the part with aluminum foil. That will prevent any heat from attacking the component. The Ersa unit is in my mind the best bang for the buck.

That would be great if you could get the numbers, our bulbs dont even have numbers on them. So you just use the bulb only and skip the circular aluminum housing?

Thanks for the replies. Interesting white paper. Didn't quite answer my concerns but still a good read. I was actually surprised that to test temperature uniformity across the zone, they attached T/C's to the substrate rather than measure the ai

Is this Al tape you guys are talking about insulated? If not, and if it jumps the tc wires, it'll effect your values.

I don't understand the issue with Kapton as long as you put a slight load on the tc so it can't lift. It takes a little more tape but it seems to work. Not as well as HT solder but much more convenient.

We don't understand why your aluminum pallet requires high temperature. Is it that you don't want to slow the conveyor?

I believe the table is aluminum. I think you will need to replace it if you want magnetic mounts. MPM has an upgrade, I cant remember what it costs, we thought it was too expensive but if your using it alot, its probably worth it, the screw in ones s

Well that is completly unacceptable for me and im sure 99% of mfgrs. I have seen people use extruded aluminum tubes. They any good? Know anyone who sells em? Thanks

Search the archives here for info. There is lots of posts on this. Short answer is Kapton isn't the best solution. Try aluminum tape or conductive glue if you don't feel comfortable soldering with high temp stuff.

If you're too lazy to search, the quick answer I can give you: ALUMINUM TAPE! Try it. DoE's have proven, that it's the 2nd best method for T/C attachment. The best is obviously hi-temp solder.
