Expanding on Dason's suggestion ... 4 Waffle Tray Size 4a www.jedec.org/download/default.htm search for "registered microelectronic carrier". 4b JEDEC Publication 95, under the CO- and CS- standards. 4c Tray manufacturers [ie, Peak, Summit, Nepenthe

Reach out to me Don, I build this type of tooling on a daily basis. these are known as Pallet carrier trays, custom Matrix trays, etc, etc... Very common in this day & age. ETM SOLDER PALLET DUDE.

Hello ! I got very strange problem with Fuji IP3 (year 2000 something) MTU picks up the part and puts it on carrier conveyor Conveyor moves the part into main machine. All the positions are correct, centers etc.. But now, the main machine pick th

Consider an adjustable (or fixed) process carrier then. It could offset the board so that your component is better centered. I have used Pentagon EMS for such carriers in the past. They are pricey, but last forever. We were a contract house, so the c

Thank you Clare. After doing some more research, I found they are known in the industry as "Carriers". I did look into that durostone material. They prices are beyond reasonable. My trek now is seeking a material to make planks out of to lay the b

Hello! Don, Yes, if the carrier is steel/stainless, it would be very hot when it comes out from oven. I heard that durostone (synthetic stone) carrier can meet your requirement, it can stand high temperature with low thermal transmission. So when it

First thing we did was visit the profile and we have it adjusted as far as we're willing to take it. I'm just going to make a carrier design in cad and have the board house produce some in their thickest substrate to see how it works out. Thanks.

We just use scrap PCBs for Oven carriers. You could probably contact your board house and as for just sheets of FR4 to use. I've also used a binder clip at each corner to lift a board off of the mesh belt in a pinch.

We started getting better reflow after rotating the pcb to locate the greater mass closer to the center of the oven. However we still leave space between panels on the conveyor to achieve a better reflow. This costs us production time. I'm simply lo

Problem is I don't have a mesh belt (lesson learned). Our conveyor is pins. If I laid some scrap pcb's spanning the conveyor pins on the long dimension of the board, I'm confident it would sag. We get a bit of sag today in our 1.6mm thick boards whi
