Stephen, you are spot on with your description. Here's a .jpg with paste layer, copper, and solder mask.

We use Indium 1074-EXR on ERSA, and it's performed miracles on our yields. Spot soldering, like wave, is all about fundamentals. Put just enough flux, preheat to prevent thermal shock and activate the flux, and then solder with enough dwell time to

You want your machine to spot the fiducials automatically. A 40mil round copper pad is the absolute minimum fiducial to use, but we found in practice that our Quad equipment won't spot them reliably. I am now using a 60mil round fiducial and it picks

Hi everyone, Greetings! I�ve got a 2-layered through-hole PCB�s having the following problems: Solder Mask peels after wave soldering at random locations and only at the bootom side of the PCB Insufficient Solder and some solder never make it to t

Thoughts are: * Eliminate solder spotting on gold fingers through process improvement in broard handling, printing paste control, and reflow recipe development. Search the fine SMTnet Archives for previous discussions. * Dispense or print a reflow te
