Horizontal Convection Reflow Technology Defined
Prior to the development of lead free soldering alloys, Horizontal Convection™ was developed for the reflow process to obtain the optimal temperature profile. DDM Novastar’s exclusive technology creates a cyclone effect through each zone of the oven to produce the most uniform temperature profile.
