2.3 Locking of the Oven and Attaching of Warning

Signs

2.3.1 Purpose

Before performing any type of maintenance or service activity on the oven you have to secure it
against switching on and to attach the relevant warning signs. If you strictly adhere to the proce-
dure as described hereafter the risk of injury for the staff is excluded.

NOTE
This procedure contains the minimum demands made on the procedure of locking and attaching
warnings signs at the oven during maintenance and service activities. Additional safety measures
as may be necessary to safely complete the work can be specified by the safety manager, the
safety committee and the health department. 2

2.3.2 Description

Always adhere to the procedure as described hereafter if you want to isolate, regulate or release
the energy in the oven.

a Inform all the staff concerned.

s Switch off the oven. For this purpose, carry out the normal switching-off procedure as de-
scribed in chapter 3.7 Switching Off the Oven.

d Disconnect the oven from all its energy sources such as:
–nitrogen supply,

–cooling water connections and

–mains supply.

rehm Anlagenbau GmbH • Leinenstrasse 7 • D-89143 Blaubeuren-Seissen 15

Instruction Manual Version 1.5 2 Operational Safety
Reflow Oven Vision8 2.3 Locking of the Oven and Attaching of Warning

f Lock the oven.

–Fix a padlock at the main switch.

–Alternative: attaching of warning signs

If it is possible to lock the machine with a padlock, this has to be done. There are however sit-
uations when for the isolation of the energy no padlock can be fixed. In those cases a warning
sign has to be attached at the isolated oven to inform the staff that the machine has been
switched off for service purposes. The sign has to be attached securely, it has to be perceptible
from all sides and it may only be removed by the person who has attached it previously.

g Release of stored energy

Stored energies in the cooling water line and electric energies in the electrolytic capacitors
have to be released by taking the appropriate measures.

–For this purpose, wait for approx. 2 minutes after switching off the oven to be able to safely
work at the oven.

h The following steps are necessary to make the oven ready for operation again:
j Check the working area. See to it that the authorized personnel removes all tools and re-acti-
vates all safety devices.

k Inform all the staff concerned.

Inform all workers in the area concerned that the machine is put back into operation before re-
moving even one of the padlocks or warning signs.

l Removal of the padlocks/warning signs.

Each authorized employee has to remove his own padlock and keep it locked away.

; Switch on the oven as described in chapter 3.6 Switching On the Oven and make authorized
personnel check during operation if the repair or maintenance work has been carried out prop-
erly.

Reflow Oven Vision8 2.3 Locking of the Oven and Attaching of Warning

2.3.3 Testing

Maintenance personnel or electricians are permitted to test circuits by activating them for a short
time without reversing the locking procedure. This however only if no other persons are carrying
out any work on the component to be tested any more.
It is extremely important that all further starting buttons be marked with the warning sign Do not
put into operation in order to prevent any unintended starting of the machine during this time.

2.3.4 Responsibility and Duties

a It is the task and the duty of the maintenance personnel and the electricians to make sure that
this procedure is adhered to.

s It is the task and the duty of the first-line superior of the maintenance personnel and the elec-
tricians to instruct his personnel in this procedure.

d It is the task and the duty of the safety manager in co-operation with the safety committee, the
Health Service Department and the managers of the different departments and the vice pres-
ident to regulate the procedure of locking and marking of the locking of the oven.

Instruction Manual Version 1.5 2 Operational Safety
Reflow Oven Vision8 2.4 Training

2.4 Training

a Employee training
The safety regulations specify that every employee has to be trained, but that not every em-
ployee is exposed to the same danger class. Therefore extensive training measures are not
required for every single person.

s In order to determine the extent of training required by each employee, the employees are sub-
divided into three categories with particular training levels:

d Authorized employees
These persons install the padlocks and warning signs and also perform the maintenance and
service activities. Therefore they have to be expert in energy regulation. First of all they have
to be able to recognize and measure all energy sources. Authorized employees also have to
be able to find energy sources which may not be recognizable as such at first sight, e.g. in the
field of electrical and mechanical engineering, chemistry and thermodynamics. As soon as
these employees are able to recognize all these energy sources they have to be trained to
safely isolate, regulate or release the energy.

f Concerned employees
These are the employees who operate the machines or components to be deactivated. These
are also employees who work in an area in which machines have to be locked or marked as
locked. The character of the energy regulating program has to be explained to these employ-
ees. They have to know why this locking/marking procedure is so important, what the padlocks
and warning signs look like and why they must not remove them.

g All other persons

These are all those employees who are neither authorized nor concerned by this procedure.
They include office employees, engineers, managers and upper management. Even if these
persons may not be connected directly with the machines to be locked or marked as locked a
certain degree of training is appropriate.

h In order to analyze the locking/marking procedure the department in charge of safety matters
will make inspections at regular intervals. As a part of this inspection the safety department will
document if all aspects of the procedure are followed. Depending on the outcome the safety
department will check the procedure formally or arrange for repeated training on the proce-
dure.

Reflow Oven Vision8 4.1 Conveyor System

4 Equipment

Some of the equipment itemized in this chapter are options and may not be available depending
on the oven type.

4.1 Conveyor System

The oven is standard equipped with a single lane conveyor. The dual lane PCB conveyor or the
mesh belt are available as options.

The technical data for the conveyor systems can be found in the technical data sheet attached to
the documentation. The data refer to standard conveyor types and may deviate slightly depending
on the equipment.

4.1.1 Pin Chain Conveyor

The PCBs are transported through the oven by means of two chains guided in aluminum profiles.
The PCBs are supported by the lengthened pins of these chains.
The drive consists of a brushless motor installed in the outlet table which is triggered by a 1Q
speed controller. Motor and chain conveyor are disconnected by a slipping clutch as soon as the
preset torque is exceeded (e.g. if a PCB blocks the chain drive).
The thermal longitudinal extension of the chains is compensated by spring tensioners. These are
integrated in the chain guidances in the inlet table.
The first cheek (front view) is the fixed side. The second, adjustable cheek is driven by a DC motor.
The position is captured by an absolute rotary encoder. The drive is installed in the inlet table. The
conveyor width can be changed at the PC either via a software button or automatically by entering
a default value of the PCB width. Back-up limit switches prevent the overrun of the minimum and
maximum width.

4.1.2 Mesh Belt

The PCBs are transported through the oven while lying on the mesh belt. Return pulleys which
permit the adjustment of the smooth running of the mesh belt are located in the inlet and the outlet.
The tension pulley is located in the lower section of the oven. A brushless motor installed in the
outlet table which is triggered by a 1Q speed controller drives the belt via the return pulley. The
drive and the return pulley are disconnected by a slipping clutch as soon as the preset torque is
exceeded (e.g. if the mesh belt is blocked).

4.1.3 Fully Automatic Chain Lubricator

The high temperature lubricant is applied directly to the

sprockets of the conveyor chains and the link chain with
a central lubricating system and dispensers.
A virtual hours-run meter runs as long as the conveyor
is switched on. If the preset time interval is reached, the
lubricating procedure is triggered.
Interval times and periods can be changed as required
by the customer in the program.

Fig. 4 - 1 Chain Lubricator

4.1.4 Conveyor Speed Monitoring

The conveyor speed is detected by means of a

belt pulse sensor at the chain sprocket and reg-
istered by the control. The actual conveyor
speed is compared to the speed value preset by
the operator. If the permissible limits are ex-
ceeded or undercut, a visual/audible alarm is
triggered.

Fig. 4 - 2 Sensor Conveyor Speed

4.1.5 Interfaces Inlet/Outlet

The peripheral devices at the inlet and

outlet are linked to the oven via inter-
faces at the inlet and the outlet of the
oven.
Depending on the requirements, differ-
ent manufacturers are employed.
Smema and Siemens interfaces are the
standard configurations.

4.1.6 Fall Down Monitoring

Via a roller guide a thin wire rope is stretched

through the oven in parallel with the conveyor
cheek. The wire is installed on insulating mount-
ings and tensioned by springs. Underneath the
wire angles are installed. If the wire is pressed
down and touches the angles, a visible/audible
alarm is triggered.

Fig. 4 - 4 Fall Down Monitoring

4.1.7 Photosensor CCS

The photosensor serves to position the sensors

if a Capability Control System is installed.

It has to be cleaned in the process chamber as

well as the plate opposite.

Reflow Oven Vision8 4.1 Conveyor System

4.1.8 Center Support

The center support prevents the warping of the PCBs due to the effect of heat. During the transport
through the oven the PCBs are supported by the link chain which is guided in an aluminum profile
rail. The center support is driven in synchronism with the chain conveyor.

Fig. 4 - 6 Link Chain

The position of the center support is adjusted by a DC motor. An absolute rotary encoder deter-
mines the position in the software. Both parts are located in the inlet table.
The height is also adjusted by a DC motor which drives the linked stations and is located under-
neath the outlet tunnel. The absolute rotary encoder for the position detection is located next to
the motor.
The horizontal as well as the vertical position can be adjusted manually via software buttons or by
directly entering the set value at the PC.
If the center support is not required it can be lowered in any position. Back-up limit switches pre-
vent the overrun of the minimum and maximum values.

4.1.8.1 Center Support Nomex Rope

The Nomex rope is tensioned by a spring ten-

sioner. In addition, wipers are affixed to prevent
electrostatic charging. If the tensioner slackens
the rope has to be replaced. The support width
is 8mm, otherwise the functions of the Nomex
rope correspond to those of the link chain.

4.2.3 Heating Chamber - Preheating

The preheating is divided into several heating zones

which are arranged above and optionally below the
conveyor system and which can be adjusted indepen-
dently. The atmosphere circulated by fans in the individ-
ual zones is heated by tubular heaters and supplied
back to the process via nozzle arrays. The temperature
is regulated by thermosensors installed in direct prox-
imity to the tubular heaters.

Fig. 4 - 10 Heating Chamber - Preheating

4.2.4 Heating Chamber Preheating Bottom

By heating the PCBs simultaneously from above and

below in the preheating zone PCBs and components
with particularly large masses can be soldered at the
same speed as normal PCBs.

Adjusting is only possible if the Operating Mode switch is at Service and there
are no PCBs left in the oven.

Auto:

The conveyor adjustment is activated when:

– a new setpoint value is entered, and

– the setpoint value deviates from the actual value, and

– there are no PCBs in the machine.

Note:
If no setpoint value has been entered and the setpoint value deviates from the
actual value, the conveyor adjustment is not activated.
This prevents an undesired activation of the conveyor adjustment and the dam-
aging of PCBs which are in the oven despite the PCB display "0". 5

Reflow Oven Vision8 6.1 File Menu

6 Program Recorder

The independent program "Recorder.exe" is used for the graphic representation of measured
curves. This program can be started up to 10 times.

On-line recorders are measuring channels to which data points measured ON-LINE (real time)
can be assigned. The preset refresh cycle is influential.

The graphs in the ON-LINE recorder are updated automatically. One recorder comprises a maxi-
mum of 8 partial graphs. These 8 partial graphs are assigned to 8 data points.

The partial graphs can differ in the ordinate, free zooming within their limits is possible. The axis
of ordinate has a linear scale.

Several ordinates are possible so that different physical quantities can be assigned to different or-
dinates. The physical unit is read out of the data point.

Within a recorder the basic functions Min-, Max-, Gradient Calculation and Individual Value Query
can be called up.

The abscissa represents a time resolution in which free zooming within one day (maximum reso-
lution) up to 1 second (minimum resolution) is possible. Scrolling between the days is feasible.

The recorded diagram can be printed out if a printer is available.

Reflow Oven Vision8 8.1 Purpose and Mode of Operation

8 Capability Control System "CCS"

8.1 Purpose and Mode of Operation

The reflow oven has to ensure that the temperature profile determined by means of test measure-
ments and set for an individual product remains stable during the complete manufacturing time.
Interferences such as unsteady environmental conditions (temperature...) and the like must not
have any influence on this stability. The CCS (Capability Control System) is an independent
means of monitoring the compliance with these demands. Besides this monitoring function, the
CCS also has a quality recording function.

8.1.1 Hardware

In each oven zone an additional thermocouple is installed, the so-called controllers.

These thermocouples provide the measured values for

monitoring. The thermocouples must not be bent or dam-
aged. It is very important that the tips of the thermocouples
do not touch the plates of the heating zones above them.
Likewise the tip of the thermocouple must not be located di-
rectly underneath an opening of the heating zones. If these
instructions are not followed, the CCS may not function
properly.

Fig. 8 - 1 Temperature Controller

The speed of the conveyor system is captured by a sensor at the drive pinion.

In the oven control the recorded sensor data are converted

into temperature and speed values and transferred to the
evaluation software for further processing. These data are
not used for the internal regulation of the heating zones and
the speed, which substantiates the independence of the
system.

Instruction Manual Version 1.5 8 Capability Control System "CCS"
Reflow Oven Vision8 8.1 Purpose and Mode of Operation

8.1.2 Functioning

The CCS is based on the principle that a temperature drop occurs at the controllers when a PCB
passes the controller in the respective zone. The amount of this temperature drop is largely de-
pendent on the heat capacity of the PCB and can be regarded as a normal regularity of physics.
Diagramm 8 - 1 shows the temperature behavior for different temperature controllers.
There is a fixed correlation between the respective minima of the controller temperatures and the
temperatures on the PCB, i.e. if for instance the temperature minima at the controllers become
smaller, the temperature on the PCB will also drop.
Diagramm 8 - 1 also shows the temperature behavior on a test PCB. These correlations are re-
producible and are utilized for the CCS. Large variations of the temperature minima at the control-
lers mean large variations on the PCB and vice versa.
It has to be taken into account however that these correlations are different for every PCB and that
the heat capacity of the PCB plays a special role. This way, the controller temperatures can be
used in lieu of the PCB temperatures for the reflow oven monitoring which is executed by means
of statistical process control (SPC). Quality charts are set up and the machine capability coefficient
for each heating zone and the speed are determined.

Instruction Manual Version 1.5 8 Capability Control System "CCS"
Reflow Oven Vision8 8.1 Purpose and Mode of Operation

8.1.3 Basic Testing Procedure

As the correlations between the PCB temperatures and the controller temperatures are PCB- spe-
cific, it is necessary to ascertain the PCB-specific data for the quality charts and the machine ca-
pability coefficients.

For this purpose it is necessary to initially establish the temperature profile for the PCB to be man-
ufactured. Only if it has been made sure that the optimum temperature profile for the respective
PCB has been ascertained, it makes sense to start monitoring.

In order to set up a quality chart, preliminary information is necessary. This particularly includes
the setpoint for the temperature minima and their standard deviation for each zone (or both data
for the speed, as the case may be). The setpoint for the temperature minima depends on the ther-
mal properties of the respective PCB and the oven settings. An exact ascertainment of this set-
point is only possible by means of a measurement.

Both required pieces of preliminary information are ascertained by means of a pre-run. During this
pre-run, 50 PCBs are soldered. The controller temperatures are recorded for each zone.

Based on the 50 measured values recorded for each zone the following is computed:

l Tj Average of the controller minima (j is the run index of the zones)

l Tsj Standard deviation of the controller minima
l Cmj Machine capability of the pre-run of the respective zones
The first two data represent the typical behavior of the PCB with the recipe set in the oven, i.e. it
is expected that the computed average zone temperature always settles again. Considerable de-
viations from this average temperature are subsequently categorized as interferences.

8.1.3.1 Pre-run

As the typical behavior of the PCB in the oven is ascertained in the pre-run, it is necessary to carry
out this pre-run with utmost care. If, for example, the recipe is changed prior to carrying out the
pre-run, the oven needs a certain amount of time to carry out the respective temperature changes.
The oven signals readiness for operation after all zones have reached a certain setpoint temper-
ature range (usually +/- 5K). It is possible to manufacture PCBs which meet the quality require-
ments, but the oven has not yet reached its final state of stability. For a successful evaluation of
the pre-run and the ongoing monitoring however it is necessary that this state has been reached.
To permit the manufacturing of PCBs after the readiness for operation signal, the pre-run is started
only after a certain number of so-called empty PCBs. The temperature controller data of these
"empty PCBs" are recorded but are not considered in the calculations for the pre-run and the on-
going monitoring. The predefined default number of empty PCBs is 10 (value can be set by rehm-
Anlagenbau).
If not all zones fulfill the minimum demand on the machine capabilities, the procedure has to be
stopped.

Instruction Manual Version 1.5 8 Capability Control System "CCS"
Reflow Oven Vision8 8.1 Purpose and Mode of Operation

8.1.3.2 Completion of Pre-run

After carrying out the pre-run, quality charts for each zone are constructed from the data. An av-
erage chart and an s chart (standard deviation chart) are utilized in each case.
The control limits of the s chart are calculated from the estimation for the standard deviation of the
respective zone Ts (the indexing j for each zone is omitted for better clarity). The factor 2.1 is a
factor fitted for the sub-sampling of n=5.

UCLs = 2.1 Ts

The average chart monitors the most important parameter, the temperature constancy. There are
two alternatives, either an average chart with extended control limits or an acceptance chart is
used. For practical use, a slightly adapted acceptance chart (Dietrich, E.; Schulze, A. Statistische
Verfahren zur Maschinen und Prozessqualifikation [Statistical Methods for Machine and Process
Qualification]) has proven itself. The control limits (LCL and UCL) of this chart are basically calcu-
lated as follows:

LCL = LSL + kATs

UCL = USL -kATs

The factor kA depends on the following figures:

Sub-sample size n (= 5 i.e. 5 subsequent PCBs constitute one sample)

Probability of acceptance Pa (= 95%)
Proportion defective p (= 31 DPM)

The control limits are computed by means of the specification limits (LSL, USL). These however
are not given directly as an exact target for the temperature setpoint for the controllers is not pos-
sible. This setpoint depends on the specific setup of the oven and the specific product. For this
reason, this setpoint is estimated from the average zone temperature of the pre-run. The specifi-
cation limits (thus adapted) now can be computed by using the specification range Tb:

LSL = T - Tb / 2

USL = T +Tb / 2

After that, the charts are ready for use. Diagramm 8 - 2 shows a concrete practical example.

Reflow Oven Vision8 8.1 Purpose and Mode of Operation

Diagramm 8 - 2 Average Chart (Partial)

8.1.4 Continuous Monitoring

After carrying out the pre-run, it is now possible to monitor the oven continuously. The keeping of
the charts and the computation of the capability parameters is done specifically for each PCB type.
If the PCB type is changed in the production, an input in the CCS on the product change is nec-
essary. This takes place automatically if this product change is also connected with a recipe
change. If this information on the product change is not entered, false alarms of the CCS may oc-
cur due to the changed PCB type.

Both charts particularly serve the purpose of displaying possible instabilities in the oven. Such a
display in the form of a violation of the control limits occurs much earlier, before other monitoring
mechanisms (e.g. in the zone control) show deviations. Moreover, the capability indices Cmk and
Cm are calculated continuously for each zone according to the following rules:

USL – LSL
C m = ---------------------------
6T s

For the average temperatures and Ts the last 50 measured values (value can be set by rehm-An-
lagenbau) are used, i.e. a moving average and a moving standard deviation are used.

8.2 CCS-Server Program

Fig. 8 - 7 CCS Server Program

This program is started in the background as a CCS server when RehmVisuII is started. It archives
all relevant data pertaining to the machine capability calculation. The Cmk value is calculated for
each zone. The smallest value is displayed in RehmVisuII.

A pre-run is the prerequisite for monitoring the oven (refer to chapter 8.1.3.1 Pre-run). It is ascer-
tained by means of 50 PCBs. The pre-run is linked with the current product/recipe and is saved
with the same name as the recipe.

When rehmVisuII loads a recipe, this is registered by the CCS server which verifies if there is an
existing pre-run with this name. If yes, it is loaded and serves as a basis for the machine capability
calculation, if not, the recording of a pre-run with 50 PCBs is initiated if CCS is activated (please
refer to chapter 8.1.3.1 Pre-run).

8.2.1 Empty PCBs

Initially in both cases a number of empty PCBs is processed which are not considered in the ma-
chine capability calculation but the data of which are recorded. After that, the monitoring proper
starts.

passed by a PCB, the pre-run recording is active.
This pre-run is saved with the name of the recipe
and an extension of ".vrl". When the product Fig. 8 - 13 Photosensor

changes, the respective pre-run is always loaded.

If no pre-run exists, the recording of a pre-run is initiated automatically.

– After completing the pre-run, the machine capability computation as such begins on the basis
of the PCBs passing through now. The temperature profile of each passing PCB is archived.

– If oven data are changed, e.g. if different temperatures are selected, a new recipe should be
