hi here are consolidated inputs to you you must validate before establishing your process. ESD-safe Material: Ensure that the masking tape is made of ESD-safe materials that have low triboelectric charge generation. Common materials used in ESD-sa

We've used masking tape and peelable (pink) mask to mask our boards before conformal coating for a long, long time. This is a huge time sink, and increases our lead times (particularly because of the cure time for the pink mask). What are other com

Try using Kapton Tape or masking tape dots instead of the liquid mask.

In the past, I've used kapton tape for masking, as well as masking tape and solder mask as you've described. I've also used dummy connectors, or connector caps to cover connectors/pins. In the end, though, I'm not sure any of these methods decrea

Is the frame placed on assembly as a guide to install the masking tape?

I will be starting a conformal coating process soon, I am looking for any pointers on 1) Best method for masking components, tape mask, liqued mask 2) Which is best Spray or Dip? 3) Compatiblity with no clean solder paste (flux residue) I have Mil

The adhesive type is the problem generally - latex adhesives used are not compatible with the silicone. Humiseal offer silicone compatible tapes & dots although they are quite expensive. I found a 3M product which is compatible with silicone based co

Not exactly SMT but something I recently did that might save you lots of time and money: Complex high $ assy that has 25+ conformal coat keep out areas - most different shapes. All locations are dimensioned on customers' print. We tried a one piec
