Hello, My name is Rolando and I want to know more about gold fingers protectors. Our current problem is on SMT line which is used with one board with gold pads and while normal production we get solder paste contaminations on these pads, recently o

Hmmmmm........I am thinking!!!!! Cleaning is the final process in our situation. After cleaning we have no need for the fiducials. Is the haze causing fiducial recognition problems? Ideally what you are looking for is a contrast between fiducial and

we met the same problem with audit, and i make a tooling log for each stencil and in tooling log , set up some criteria for checking such as tension , mechanical damage, printing result ect. The stencil will be checked periodicly by process engineer,

Why would you want AutoProgram for DOS? AutoProgram ver 5.3.2 is avilable from Quad Systems and is supported for using Windows 3.1.1 This is the latest rev for AutoProgram it is not supported for other operating systems because there is no more resea

Two things: 1 A flat surface will probably help the "balls on the socket sliding off the ridge of HASL" problem, but possibly consider less risky choices for your flat surfaces that immersion silver, like: OSP, ENIG, and immersion tin. 2 Don�t throw-

What about conveyor speed? I tried to manage that the speed of the board and the speed of the wave were nearly the same at that point where the leads are leaving the wave. But actually I haven�t seen icycling except at one time and that was solved r

Make sure you're getting a good roll from your squeegies. Poly will "scoop", leaving less, nickel will add a little extra. A slightly shorter blade height out of the holders will help promote a good roll- this helps push the paste into the thru h
