Hello everyone, Talking to my boss today I was able to determine what we're really looking for in terms of reflow soldering. The company is not looking to do a volume run; we're trying to solder chips for prototype boards, which are currently done w

Happy Friday All! Well, it seems another "opportunity" has presented itself to me. Looking to assemble a 24" X 24", 52-layer board... piece-o-cake, right? Not real sure of all the components that are on it, but I do know that there is some 20-mil

What type of flux is in your solder paste? Active or No-Clean? With lead free solder you really should be using an active flux. The lead free oxidizes during reflow if you are not using a Nitrogen or Vapor Phase reflow. So a more robust and activ

Hi mate, in humble opinion, Hot air Convection types are here to stay. Some machine designer folks are combining IR and Hot Air Relow into integrated technological units for commercial sale to folks like us. Dave F tells us that another group of d

What solder are you talking about and what reflow method are you using? High Melt Alloys: SN96 (Sn96/Ag4 or Sn96.5/Ag3.5) - Simliar to SAC305 although normally uses Rosin based flux that can required more extensive cleaning. Pb85 (Pb85/Sb10/Sn5) -

Let me be more specific about my dilema. We have used a vapor phase reflow process for many years. We just bought a Heller 1800 this year (2000). We may very well be able to run all 600 very different board types we build in 10 recipies on the Hel

We are building a monster ... Dimensions are 10" x 7" ... 12 layers ... A Logic Assembly with a Power Supply all rolled into one ... The Power Supply is in one section of the board, the logic in the other section ... The Power Supply obviously has a

Hi, It was funny. The sight of 3 men standing around the microwave daring each other to push the start button, and then freaking out when the whole thing looked as though it was going to explode was funny. I guess you have to try these things! Tho

We used to use an APS Gold GF-120 before we went lead-free and the HT version came out. It worked fine for low volume and proto runs though not as much control over the profile as an oven with more zones. We actually had a batch oven from Bomir befor
