I talked to a solder paste chemsist and found out a few things. From above (Dave F) states a test for solder paste involving reflow on a non-wettable surface. Commonly known as the solder ball test this test is performed all the time by paste manufa

Thank you for kindness advice. From the result of IC after pass the reflow process. The color of letter will change to similar color of material compound of IC. Then when we inspection by AOI machine, we have many problem about high fault reject rate

I have these boards that are a four layer FR4 material, we had been running them for quite awhile with no trouble, and then they started delaminating, I checked my Reflow oven profile and I was barely hitting the temps required for our paste, we then

Causes of Delamination ["Quality Assessment of Printed Circuit Boards" Lund, Preben; Bishop Graphics 1985 0137450354] The reason for delamination is epoxy starvation in the glass cloth layers or an incomplete curing of the base material. It has been

We have an entire Industrial Eng crew that come in 2.5 hours after everyone starts work and leave 30 minutes after everyone leaves (that�s like having 65 extra working days off each year!). In that 30 minutes they take picture of what they think are

We did extensive side by side (by side) testing of three AOI machines Omron, YesTech and Mirtec. In the end, even with weighted scores, the difference in the top two machine was still only four/tenths of a point. Third place was a distant 14 points

Hi Jorge, The success of such production purely depends on process control. One needs to first understand the board layout in detail, and evaluate any critical components for their temperature handling capabilities. Remember, you are dealing with com
