Depending on the connector you should be able to use a standard cheap arbor press with some cheap home-made tooling. Standard arbor presses typically have a rotating disc with cut-outs, remove this and put a decent quality stainless steel block in it

hi, there is an IPC standard, IPC-A-610 - Acceptability of Electronic Assemblies. According to this manual, solder in the bends of a lead does not matter, but solder touching the body of a component is a defect. I cannot find a specific reference in

Where are the shorts occurring on the 96 pin connector? Are they consistently in the same areas? It looks as though there are a number of pins connected by traces on the board, and/or the ground plane. This would cause a lot of repeatable shorts i

We usually do Solder reworks, and some components that cannot be installed by SMT Machines or Wave solder due to specs or the technology in our company... aur work methods and instruction are always based on designators and are more illustrated to ca

We had a selective solder installation tech raise the connector body off of the PCB slightly with a spacer to allow for a visual inspection to verify the process/profile. A few years back we invested in a large enclosure X-ray with a manipulator arm

That you have 'grainy' solder only at the ends of the connector and not at all solder connections indicates that your quality types are on track and are pointing you in a direction worthy of investigation and developing a better understanding of the

Hi Claudia! here you can find different kind of adapters. We�ve used some of them and those are working fine. Quite expensive, but... quality costs! http://www.e-tec.ch/IC_sockets_connectors.htm

Is the temperature the only drawback when reflowing components other than connectors? for example caps, transformers. Is there a problem with the soldering quality if the body of the component covers the solder paste?

We are having a problem with JST connector ICM-MA50H-SS52-1161 LF SN. After reflow oven soldering we have mostly problem with soldering quality for firs or last leg of the connector. (There is no connection- leg just lays-lift on the solder no wicki
