The Company just certified to AS9100. One of the minor observations related to the method used to measure the lead length to insure compliance with IPC requirements. Are there any tools/devices/equipment available to measure lead lengths that is repe

Hello, I am not sure what you mean exactly. Lead length is something standard given from components supplier. Pretty much all new AOI machines can measure the length and height of most of the leads on a IC.

If you happen to have the Solder Paste Height Measurement System, it would able to do the works for you. That's only if the leads are not long.

I would like to understand What will be the allowable warpage for 152mm length PCB. We are observing about 1.5mm warpage. Is that acceptable? Could you please share method to calculate the warpage

Allowable bow & twist: Together, both IPC-A-600G and IPC-6012B represent the core IPC documents for describing the acceptable and nonconforming conditions that are either externally or internally visible on finished printed boards. IPC-A-600G relies

You also want to look at whether or not you are using lead free paste. "Typically" for leaded paste, 25% is acceptable, depending on end result, but lead free is less forgiving.Not only for the paste to migrate back to pad but also for comp. to right

Thank you. I spoke with our SMT guy, and he stated that there is plenty of board support on the pcb. So it's not a matter of flexing. There just seems to be inconsistancy in the solder application. He did mention that part of the problem is a lac

We are a military contractor and need to build to IPC610 class3. We are receiving many parts with palladium leads and currently use a No-clean solder paste. We have evaluated OA pastes with very little improvements. Without a touch up of all leads th

Pd takes longer to desolve than the materials yer used to using. Search the fine SMTnet Archives for background on modifying your reflow recipe.
