we have a problem : The connector is falling down in the second reflow. This connector is mounted in the first side. You can find attached the reflow profil we work with and a photo of the connector. We tryed with under_film but the connector is sti

Traditionally these connectors are riveted to the board on higher volume telecommunication applications. sarason

Would you consider a light reflow pallet on second side holding the connectors in place and preventing them from moving?

I see that the connector has plastic alignment pins. Is there any reason you can squirt a drop hi-temp "Crazy" glue into each hole, after the bottom side assembly and before printing the top side?

=0.08g/mm2, make it less than 0.08. And maybe the connector gravity center location is a cause also. If no machine issue (vibration, wind,etc), and you cannot change the design/material then you can use SMT glue to fix the connector during reflow.

If all else fails, you can always chipbond the part. Would it be possible to run this side as the second reflow?

If you have control of the solder alloy you're able to use on the product, you could run a lower temp solder on the second side and try to avoid the first side entering reflow.

We can't do that because we are using dual ligne reflow oven..So the two sides of PCB are soldered with the same reflow profil.

No to redesign, no to glue dispensing and no to pallets. Now you should change gravity ...or pray :) I am interested to see what other solution you can come up with.
