Hi! Some varibles that I would think increase the risk: -The use of Nitrogen when soldering. -The use of IR may cause thermal vias (if placed only on one "side") to produce uneven heat distribution and thus wick the comp. -Uneven heat distribution.

Spikes with our selective solder ERSA machine

Electronics Forum | Tue Nov 14 16:06:27 EST 2000 | zorox

We have an ERSA machine here where we have solder "spikes" occasionally. We have made sure our flux is dispensing properly, we have adjusted z axis speeds, our preheater is heating properly, adjusted XY speeds, etc. Can anyone think of something we m

Our land patterns are slightly bigger than the part, we've had no problems. There are your own concerns about the part hanging over the pads, this can be ok or not depending on your application and/or how much part is over. I'm sure this is in the J-

Have you tried running a glass plate? If you still need to adjust placement it is a machine issue.( calibration ) If everything is good your conversion software needs looked at. That's all I have without knowing the CAD software and Machines

Re: CAD Translation Help Needed

As fortune might have it, many CAD mfgrs use .pcb for their files. Just for a few: Zuken Visula, Pads Power-PCB, ACT CAM-350 and derivatives. Why not: * Read it into your present CAD system [assuming it's one that can read .pcb files] * Generate
