Failure modes to watch for
Every guide in the Heller Industries Heller 1900 / 1936 MK7 library lists the candidate root causes its procedure rules out. These are the distinct failure modes we've documented so far, a useful starting point if you don't yet know which specific alarm or symptom you're chasing.
Excessively warped PCB catching on conveyor rail or mesh
Worn or broken conveyor chain link dragging on the guide rail
Solder or flux residue buildup on drive sprocket reducing traction
Conveyor edge guide set too narrow for the board width
Heating element failure in one or more zones reducing peak temperature
Blower motor degradation reducing forced convection and heat transfer
Zone thermocouple calibration drift causing set-point to actual temperature error
Nitrogen flow reduction in nitrogen-atmosphere ovens causing oxidation

How to clear a conveyor jam on a Heller 1900 / 1936 MK7 reflow oven
Conveyor jams are usually caused by a warped PCB, a worn chain link, or a drive sprocket particle buildup. Stop the machine, cool the zone, and remove the board before inspection.
How to fix reflow profile deviation on a Heller 1900 / 1936 MK7 reflow oven
Profile deviation is usually a failed heating element, a blower motor fault, or a thermocouple out of calibration. Run a profiler board and compare to the baseline before changing set-points.
How to fix solder ball defects from a Heller 1900 / 1936 MK7 reflow oven
Solder balls are usually caused by a ramp rate too high, moisture in the PCB, or solder paste slump from printing to reflow delay. Check the preheat profile and board storage first.
