I just flew in from (insert city) and boy are my arms tired. pr: Likely, you're correct. The "pound-inch" units should have been the give-away, for us. Good catch. If this is the case, the frame fabricator would be the best source for tensioning

I have run 0.031 boards. One of the things you may want to look at is the speed of the oven. With 14 zones you may be going to slow with the board which could be the reason your boards are starting to bow. You might also think about adding stiffners

| | | | | Hello all! | | | | | Recently we got a problem about the Funtional test. Some boards passed tests by using the auto-fixture(vacuum), but failed by using manual test fixture(need to plug CPU, DIMM etc.). The error symptom is no picture. We d

Hi there, I'm actually facing a lot of trouble with PCB's presenting up to 3mm of bow /twist at reception i.e. before assembly. The PCB size is 220 by 230mm. The boards are to be assembeled SMD double sides with 05.mm pitch on both sides. In order to

The fine pitch QFP is a 240 pin one being loaded with other components on a 2.0mm thick FR4 PCB. There are 6 of this Qfp's on this PCB showing the same charactristic of bowing therfore the solder fillets are vary from the center to the end of the pa

It sounds like your board is "dome shaped", some call it "cupped". If so, this is more of a twist than a bow. Before moving on, if we receive a board that is so torqued that we can't figure-out how to measure it, we reject it. Go back to your TM-

Anyone using these 2010 resistors? We just tried them and they bow like crazy during reflow. Not very good looking. Profile meets manufacturers spec. The part solders and works fine, but I'm a little concerned about putting anything on a board th

Hello Chris, "It sticks up about 3/8" or so above the surface of the board." Is this over the ridgid portion of the PCB or in between? Is it possible to create a support fixture for printing that has relief that will allow the flex to bow downward i

I am having problems with D-Packs shifting during reflow. Does anyone know of a good aperture design to solve this problem ? Possibly bow tie.
