When you say that glue viscosity changes for lot to lot, is this LOT TO LOT of your product OR Loctite�s product? And when you say that glue viscosity changes, what do you mean [eg, increase by � , decrease by � , er watt?]. What specifically is th

Asymetry in heating or mechanical forces are the primary reasons for tombstoning regardless of the reflow method. [There's beaucoup of background in the fine SMTnet Archive on reflow tomstoning.] Your situation is curious, but at least you know why

| I have a component that is glue cured on the bottom of a pcb. The component is a 1206 size jumper. It is made up of iron/nickel alloy. The problem I am having is that the part will fall off the board during wave solder. Is the component not abl

Hi, We occasionaly have problems with some of our panellised boards breaking away from each other. The section joining them is very small and makes the assembly weak. The boards are normally broken off during our through hole process (bad handling)

Really Rocky? What's the meaning of Russ' "if it will fit" in your scheme? As an alternative to your scheme, he could glue the nut on its side, tie a string through the hole in the nut, attach the other end of the string to the open door, and the

The fluid heats up to 105-110 from the ultrasonics running, and or from the fluid filtering pumps. The rinse temp is always the same as the wash. It is a single tank with a partition welded in between. (One side rinse, and the other side wash) FYI

Any decent flux would volatise off with the heat of the wave unless absorbed into the solder mask. Test this by trying to clean in alcohol or common solvent aerosol, if it does not clean then it is probably Mineral Salts from solder mask fillers. Ano

On first glance it looks like those particular pads were not attached to any traces. If I had to guess I would say that your rework profile got hot enough to melt away the glue holding the pads to the board and they came away with your part when you

Kic Thermal used Pyropel. Cut with a razor blade and glue together with a good Dow Corning high temperature silicone. You can buy Pyropel in various thicknesses. It is not cheap. $100.00 for a 24" X 24" X 3/16" sheet. You can buy at McMaster Car

We see this from time to time. Usually, one of the leads of an electrolytic is attached to a ground plane, and the other to a trace. The ground plane acts as a big heat sink and reflows significantly later than the trace. If you have glue in your li
