I would like to recommend QUICK soldering robots as a BEST VALUE for hot iron table tops. Laser Soldering is not very friendly (FYI)

Learning to solder through-hole components is an essential skill for any electronic professional.And basic soldering is easy to learn if you are building simple electronic circuits. Also the most common solder alloy used in electronics is 60% tin an

Laser Soldering by nature is a very dialed in process. - Requiring specially formulated flux and solder paste applications that will perform while absorbing a massive amount of energy. What I believe "Gary" is attempting to say is: Laser Soldering c

IMHO I would suggest that if you are using flux only during a BGA placement on a small run, that you first tin the pads with your soldering iron, then level the pads back out with wick. Accomplishes two things; adds a little metal to the joint to ma

I can't claim to be an expert....I've just bought a used RPS, and it'll be my first...but, after reading through their manual, and working on setting things up, I'd say: -Conceptually, I like the idea of moving the board rather than moving the entir

Hi all, I am new to SMT. In past I've made many PCB boards with my small hands at home, but I've used regular technology drilling the holes for the components. I am trying to use SMT for my projects. SOP packages I was able to solder using a regular

Robot soldering has never really worked well and if you are looking for any volume or repeatability, you may be disappointed! Even though you are using a robot, you are still soldering with an iron and wire solder. This process cant guaranty the be

GT 8 years ago every board saw "touchup". Touch was done to fix boards to conform to A-610. Now A-610 allows less than complete hole fill. Our operators were totally freaking nuts about touching boards. They touched each others touch and on and o
