The assembly process involves activity before you get to reflow. Reflowing is the easy part. Putting paste down and placing parts in wet paste is the terrifying part. Benchtop reflow ovens can be a real handy tool for small production but with the g

As others have stated, there are a few other things in the aveage assembly shop that are much more scary that a reflow oven. For instance, we have a wonderful wave soldering machine and w've been doing that kind of stuff for tens of years, but every

With friends like you, who needs enemies? I�d guess that the perceived benefits of flat pads for your 20 mil pitch and below components counter-balance the higher cost, gold being a solder pot contaminant, limited solder mask compatibility, potentia

Does anyone have advice about the best low volume (hopefully under $10K) reflow system for SN96 or SAC305 solder? We recently purchased a benchtop IR oven and it is not working well. Jim

A small benchtop system uses a mask, tooled for your part, to arrange the solder spheres onto the BGA, after it has had the excess solder heat-vacuumed off and a new layer of flux applied. The spheres are poured into the cavity, excess decanted off.

I had an opportunity two years ago to evaluate three benchtop AOI systems. Omron, Yestech, and Mirtec. I was fortunate to be able to have all three machines side by side for my evaluation period, which lasted near a full month. At the time I was

No problem running lead free without nitrogen. Careful profiling will take care of the soldering. Cosmetically, the Nitrogen reflow is superior for lead free, and we see much better wetting, better coverage of the PWB pads, and of course the smooth

Hi! I have been studying the reflow process. And now, I am researching for a recommended reflow oven that can process a small to low-medium production SMT soldering. For the experts in the reflow field, please recommend a reliable reflow oven. Here

apples to apples. 20 boards 80 parts top and 10 parts bottom. these boards are done on a semi regular basis (you know the boards are coming to you from an OEM at least three times a month, just no exact schedule). All that is required is pasting..mo

Instead of using adhesives to glue the back side SMD components and wave soldering them together with the through hole components, our manufacturing engineers choose to process the back side components through reflow oven without adhesives and proces
