Yes, We have done away with masking with kapton 8 yrs ago. As long as the goldfingers are leading edge you can use one of these: 1. rubber goldfinger boot/glove - contact east use to carry them...don't know if they still do. 2. fiberglass glove - ma

We'd guess that you can wave solder your connectors, but check with the ink supplier, just to be safe.

I believe you need some sort of "flat top" for this connector. I have ordered special "tops" for connectors we have placed in the past, the top is simply removed before any item is plugged into it. This also protects the connector after the board i

Here is a thread from the fine SMTnet Archives from a couple of weeks ago, where we spoke about the topic of mixed lead-free solder with components that have lead-bearing solderability protection: http://www.smtnet.com/forums/Index.cfm?CFApp=1&Messag

No lead devices oxidize very quickly when washed. Try to keep it a no clean process. Solderability comes into play a bit depending on solder paste.

There are several ways to do this, if you are doing large volumes the best way is to use Titanium Finger Masks. You can have them custum made or if you are lucky one of the standard sizes will fit. They slide over the fingers to protect them through

I am working on the process for build of a product that will have a 150 pin AMP PCMCIA connector on the bottom side of the laminate. I am trying to get a selective solder pallet to protect the connector through wave. If this doesn't work I will nee

Hany: I have never understood why the add-on boards in PCs have gold plating on their connectors. In the military and in avionics, they require gold on connectors to protect from wear and corrosion. But PCs ave very different. PCs: * Are obsolet

Currently, in my working factory, we facing the flux residue remain on connector after washing. (of course, this is clean process with WS solder paste). So, are there any ways to clean the flux residue rather than go back to wash again? Because wash
