Have you tested the solderability of the inbound components per ANSI/J-STD-002, Solderability Tests for Component Leads, Terminations, Lugs, Terminals, and Wires?

Define "pretty easily". Did anyone ever do whatever is making them fall off now before? In most casses where a component "falls off" then someone implements a totally subjective test to make sure the rest of the parts wont "fall off" they damage a lo

I assume that these parts are falling off during second-side reflow? The easy solution, of course, is to not build high-mass components on first-side reflow. If this isn't practical, however, you can try using epoxy/glue under the component. We'

We are reflowing ceramic resonators and are finding their tops falling/popping off when handling the pcbs during final assy. The epoxy seems to be coming off the components base and adherring to the lid. The components are "RFM resonators", case type

Hi there , I agree with phil .. but we cannot change the architecture of the card to mount the connector on the 2nd side. Steve , we are producing large series, so we can't manually ship bond the connector .. for the moment, we cannot invest in a gl

Hello Craig Are code dates other than these two coming apart or do they stay together? If other dates stay together you should get together with RFM. Did the process work before and and the defects just start happening? These are pictured on the RFM

| Has anyone had issues where bottomside double reflowed smt has fallen off in the wave when using voc-free flux? I have verified the hotter profile was not the issue by using an alcohol based flux with no problems.This voc-free flux is also not caus

Hello, We are currently trying to design and ultimately implement a system that will be able to count and manage component placement for three Sanyo chipshooters on three SMT lines. As the number of components decreases in the reels we want to be ab

To me, it sounds like a bored quality engineer looking for problems where none exist. I will say that the terminal velocity of a falling reel is below the threshold that would cause damage to typical components. Therefor, it is safe to use a reel th

Many relays use soldered post coil terminatins inside the relay. In one case many years ago I found the SMT relay manufacturer used eutectic solder inside their hermetic relay. The SMT relay would fail because the solder balled up on the post, woul
