REFLOW OVEN CONTROLLER

See the source code on GitHub

This Arduino based controller turns an ordinary toaster oven into an oven for reflow soldering.

Reflow soldering is an electronics assembly process that is inexpensive and commonly used in automated electronics assembly, but it is a process that can also be used to assemble electronics efficiently at home. Many people have had success simply heating boards in a conventional oven or on a skillet, but consistent and reliable soldering requires very precise control over the temperature and very careful timing, which these methods simply do not provide. To this end, I created a controller that turns an ordinary toaster oven into an oven that can be used for reflow soldering.
