We have a C-740. I agree with the second pass statement. Be careful how much you overlap. Also make sure the board is very clean before you coat or its worthless. You will be able to get very accurate results without masking. Let me know if you need

The top picture probably won't run. You have black soldermask dramatically misregistered and overlapping what look a lot like fids. Either your machines are going to pitch a fit and not find the fid or they're going to center on the soldermask outlin

It's a terrible idea. Through holes should be drilled in the exact center of a pad +/-. Have the two holes go out back and settle this. Whichever hole returns, that hole get to keep the pad. The other hole needs to get its own pad. End of story. Th

1)having the leader tape overlap and taped square is key. 2)making sure the Butt splice of the carrier tape is cut square and come together with no gaps 3) I would put a piece of yellow splice tape on the underside of the carrier tape to help hold th

If at all possible avoid mirror assembly BGA designs. It has a higher failure rate when compared to non-overlap designs (life testing). In addition, from a rework point of view, X-ray inspection yields no help when a failure occures. You can't det

I need to address the issue for colorful display on solder joints, for whoever researched on this machine, no one can deny it is a smart feature for visual assistance. however, it is still Mono color "gray scale" algorithm. it basically "paint" the i

Folks, At the moment I bake all BGA that are in unsealed trays, to reduce moisture etc. Is this common practice or are there particular manufacturuers that cause more problems. Also, the tape for BGA tape & reel has a hole in the tape (as is normal

Comment: A 20 mil pad for a .5mm pitch BGA? That seems like an awful large pad for this device. If my math is right the pads will be basically touching each other. .5mm = .020". I would think that you have something else. You cannot have a 22mil

We also ahve GSM's and paste on the nozzles is not an issue here. my question would be: Why is paste getting on the nozzle? The nozzle should only come into contact with the surface of the component being placed, not the paste. If that is the case

Today's regular Sn-Pb paste chemistries are designed to run at higher peak temperatures ensuring that your lead-free alloys will coalesce with your regular Sn-Pb solder. That being said, it is do-able to solder both types in one oven. Generally, wit
