(Means to be Solved by the Invention) However, since reflow in a nitrogen gas atmosphere is performed in a closed room or a nearly closed room, as the reflow progresses, the solvent gas evaporated from the cream solder enters the heating chamber. The concentration of solvent gas in the heating chamber gradually increases until it becomes saturated, which makes it difficult for the solvent in the solder cream to evaporate, and the gas liquefies and aggregates on the board, causing deterioration of solder quality. It had become.
