Abstract

A transfer system that supports circuit boards as it conveys them through a reflow oven. The system uses a sag support between edge supports. The sag support does not have to move as the circuit board is transferred along the transfer system. The height of the sag support can be easily adjusted. The sag support's mounts can maintain appropriate tension in the sag support even if the sag support expands during operation. The system may use a mechanism to prevent the friction between the boards and the sag support from interfering with the movement of boards along the transfer system.
