First, don't get too excited about the thermal capabilities of conductive epoxy. An epoxy like DuPont CB-100 increases the amount of heat conducted through the barrel, but many over estimate what it can do. Calculations show for a 0.020" drilled

You looked one page to far in the IPC book! Fillet height of 75% is acceptable for all 3 classes. Per IPC 610 rev. C Section 6 table 6.2. A. Circumferential wetting on Primary side (top)between lead and barrel (not anualar ring) Class 1 Not spe

You've told us nothing about your situation, process, boards, or anything!!! If you leave some boards with very fine solder connections on the shelf for a cuppla years, the grain will become coarse. What do you mean when you say "grainy"? What is

Transistion Automation makes a great squeegee blade. I have found that it is superior to the standard steel/titanium blades generally used in production. It is made from gun barrel blue steel. It is more expensive than standrd squeegee blades, but i

In those cases where we have a 3.2mm thick, 16-layer board with several GND layers, do we still need ground connection to each and every layer (with thermal relief) or, skip part of the ground patterns? Will it help soldeing rising. I can't reach mor

First, why do you have paste on the opposite side of the component. I would recommend having it on the same side. Second, how thick is your stencil? Pin in paste requires thickness, to fill the whole barrel. Stencil should be really thick. Try to man

Same idea but simpler execution. Verify Solder pot temperature. Verify Temperature of Solder as it leaves the nozzle. Verify preheating gets your PWB up to 90C-120C prior to soldering. Check machine speed, verify 4 seconds contact with solder at

| Currently, we are baking any PCB before process on SMT, the 'reason' is to dry any possible humidity that could be inner the PCB, it does not matter if the PCB is multilayer or not. We bake PCB's at 107C for 4 hrs and the board must be process into

GT 8 years ago every board saw "touchup". Touch was done to fix boards to conform to A-610. Now A-610 allows less than complete hole fill. Our operators were totally freaking nuts about touching boards. They touched each others touch and on and o
