I presume you are referring to vibration test with fixed frequency at room temperature. One procedure describing the detailed profile is in MIL-STD-883E, Method 2005.2 (12/31/96). The approximate profile can be described as 60Hz, 20-70g, and 96 hrs t

When switching from cleaning RMA to a no-clean flux, one area that is commonly overlooked is the stencil cleaning operation. Stencil cleaners that are effective in cleaning RMA often fail when cleaning no-clean (especially alcohol cleaners). Pallet

I have 2 and am generally pleased with them. 1 machine has performed perfectly without fail, while the other has had a number of problems. The problematic machine was once a demo and probably took alot of abuse before we got it. Easily a 16 mil pit

Agreed. Joint failure can happen when un-bagging or durig box-build (at customer site). Careful handling should be used. In one case I had boards returned to me for evaluation and failure analysis. Too bad our site never built the boards!!! (jacka

James, If you have a true MSD issue, then baking them AFTER your reflow is not going to fix the issue. I would have to agree with GS and look at trapped cleaner media (if your not No-clean) under the components, or inside connectors. If your runnin

Is anyone using standard FR-4 material for ROHS? All I have ever seen to indicate the need to go to a high tg/td board is that the material may fail after repeted rework. I have a customer that is trying to use IS-410 and it is causing electrical pro

The Smart Sonic 440-R SMT detergent is certified safe and effective by the EPA (I downloaded the documents from their web site). Is this true of the other chemistries that you referenced? If so, where can I find the documentation? If not, why not?
