In this video, I show you the final assembly of my custom-made reflow hot plate. I fixed some cables and connections, fixed the heating plate and assembled everything on a plywood sheet. So now I have a fixed, permanent assembly that I can pick up any time and solder my SMD circuit boards.

Very smart solution with that porcelain insulators and paper clips 👏

Thanks! I was trying to find solutions which are easily available and relatively cheap. Hopefully, this will help others to recreate my project.
Very nice work. A useful and interesting project. The pcbs look to be excellent quality.

Thank you! I am really happy with this project, it served me quite well already. I soldered several PCBs with it and all of them turned out great.
the steady and neat PCBA always amazes me👍

Thank you!
how did you attach the screws to the porcelain insulators? or is the screw on top connected straight into the baseplate?

There's a bolt going through the whole porcelain piece. So, the other end is attached to the bottom of the wooden sheet.
hello sir your project amaze me, but why not using thermistor rather than type-k, thermistor is faster, just like in 3d printer. you made me subscribes by this awesome project

Hi! Thanks for the kind feedback! Actually, this is a good remark. The reason I chose thermocouple is because I had a bunch of them at home so it felt natural to work with them. Also, due to the sluggish heating of the heater, the "slow" sampling rate of the thermocouple is perfectly fine. This application is not limited by the response time of the thermocouple. But thermistor would be faster and probably a tiny bit cheaper too.
I really enjoyed what this. For your pcb reflow soldering Station. A nice design. Please may I point out one thing to do with the power lead you have got a ground point. the plug has got no ground pin. Therefore this is not earth that the sockets on the wall. To ground at all. Just letting you know. Hope you did not mind me. Letting you know this.

Hi! Sorry, I hope I do not sound rude, but I could not figure out the meaning of your comment. Could you rephrase it?

@@CuriousScientist the lead you are using to power the reflow station. The earth pin is not on the plug. there for the reflow station as no earth when you plug it in to the socket on the wall.

It is there! I am using a 3-pole grounded cable. The grounding goes into the PCB, and then I use an additional wire to connect this grounding to the heater.

@@CuriousScientist if you go to 3:26 and look at the plug. It as no earth pin. the reflow station might have the earth wire connected to it. because of the plug having no earth pin. the reflow station is not connected to earth or ground. hope this was better for you to understand.
