APS themselves is a good source for learning how to use this oven. Have you talked to them?

Hey Russ I hate to say it but you switched from Indium for no reason! If you were getting residue then your oven profile was off! Your flux should have burned off if it was done correctly, that's the purpose of "no-clean".

Does anyone know of a standard stencil thickness for BGA'S. We currently use 4 to 5 mil stencils depending on component mix. Is an aperature reduction required for BGA'S. If so what percentage. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks MRMAINT

Aperture size should vary with the component [pitch]. That size should be the same a the pad size. So, generally pinching is not required. Indium discusses BGA apertures on their site [ http://www.indium.com ]

Hi The answer is yes, These moles, as you called them, are designed more as process control test instruments than true representations of the products that you will process. By The Way, Most don't know this so I congratulate you. Many get schnoke

Hello all, We are considering switching from FujiCam to Flexa. Does anyone have any comment on this? Advantages/Disadvantages? Thanks

I strongly reconmend to switch over to Flexa. It's much easier and reliable than FujiCam and UniCam. Except the PCB's have to be very roboust to handle all the security fixtures. W. G

I have only used this on Mov assy's, never on boards. If using no-clean does the joint appearance enhance AOI effectivnes? Anyone tried it? The cost would be worth it.

Russ, you are right, I've seen briging on 16 mils pitch on OSP (ref under N2),to avoid it needs more care in paste volume. Easier was by 63/37 (Clean) and N2 (on OSP double sided PBA). Regards Gabe

We are looking at a design that has an smt led emiter and a corresponding smt detector. After reviewing the tolerance stackup, we need a reflowed placement accuracy of +/-0.25mm(+/-0.010") for each component. Any thoughts/opinions?
