Selective Solder Recommendation | 20 December, 2023

Looking for some Recommendations for a Selective Solder machine. We currently have a KISS103 no pre heater. We are high mix low volume, so batch is most like best option. I have used Pilerhouse Jade MKII years ago. Wondering what other option people like.

Pillarhouse. Prodex. Been very happy with it.

I haven't used one, but KISS was bought out by Nordson, and the newest version of the KISS 103 is the Cerno 508.1. Their earlier Cerno's were almost identical to the KISS 103's. Something to keep in mind if you're used to programming that style.

I recently bought an Ebso. I haven't got experience with other manufacturers but I'd currently recommend not them. It doesn't save any time over hand soldering, takes a ton of power and nitrogen, it's really hard to program, has no process control and the worst software I've ever seen. No cameras, no fiducials, no height checking. I might change my opinion when my supplier gets it to work and it is an older machine.
