Well, it wasn't as easy to figure out the root cause. The last image is below. It shows how the board finish looks like (the trace was under solder mask). AS you can see, the layer of E-Ni is spliting (the board shop admitted the problem afterwards).

We have an excellent machine from a leading manufacturer of Conformal Coating equipment..... USI. This machine can run relatively high volume applications, and is in line, smema controlled. I suggest you watch the video of our machine in operation, a

Dittos from A Very Frazzled Man. Money spent on a better process is almost always more advantageous than better inspection. As for manual TH insertion, have you considered a semi-automatic machine like the Contact Systems CS-400? While the "E" serie

Hi guys, We have an interesting case we haven't seen before (see the picture below) http://postimage.org/image/lu2f4ae55/ Solder balls form on unpopulated pads after reflow. 1. Reflow profile is fine. 2. Stencil thickness / paste volume is also f

Below are a few photos of an ongoing issue we are having with 1 pwb style. Some of the pads appear to have contamination that appears after the selective solder step. The joints are extremely hard to rework - almost impossible. We had the joints anal

Reckon on around 2% of wasted parts for each and every component used, and you won't be too far off. Decide on a value below which you don't care, and for parts that cost more than that, you need to keep a closer eye on them to see if they are indee

Thanks for your input Michael. Basically the boards had been go through from washing and even ionic contamination already. In order to eliminate or detect the flux residues, is there any equipment something like a uv lamp that can detect the flux fro

Are you sure you mean pick and place files? Or does the manufacturer need centroid data to make their own pick and place files? Or they might even be able to use ascii CAD data to generate pick and place files. Look for an export function. Probably

Hi i am referring Tin whisker report JESD201A class 2 standard from Vishay. i can see at TC -55/85C using pbfree reflow there are 0 growth at 500&1000 cycles. for snpb reflow and the same temperature and same cycle significant growth can be found. my

Yes we have the hard copy of the proper data on a floppy disc. If we do not have the correct Proper Data, could it give me the error below? I was thinking it would make it past the log onto machine comm server stage, and then have a different err
