I am not sure that it is the pillow problem. With the pillow problem you tend to see residual solder on the pad and voids where this solder pulled from on the ball. What we are seeing is a very thin flat layer of solder on the pad and a flat surface

Hello, I need some suggestion. I want to acquire a rework station that can handle small CSPs and has a vision system, but cost is a concern. Does anyone have an opinion on the brand I should look at? I see that there are some air-vac drs22 pre-owned

DRS22 is not really comparable to the DRS25 due to a huge difference in the bottom heat technology used on those machines. If the PCBs are light enough the huge power of the DRS25 bottom heater is likely not needed, though. I would ask about your pr

I've speced in CircuitCAM at 3 different company's since 1996 and wouldn't use anything else. When we program our Mydata using CAD data within 5 minutes we have a program + a couple more minutes to verify the color visual aids by station. When we rec

to summarize - 3 components are placed on a single module x 8 on pcb - 2 anodes & 1 cathode are infected (so no component for us) - the problem does not look like wetting problem as the component and land pad is wetted, but the paste is not complete

The colour you see on the pads is tin/copper intermetallic layer. In your reflow the immersion tin coating and the copper pad underneath react to form in intermetalic layer. The effect is worse the hotter the pcb or area of the pcb gets. In IR reflow

To how many decimal places? Do you want to have a factor for different screen printer operators? There is no such formula and I doubt there ever will be one with any real accuracy. The stencil house might be able to tell you the total area of the

Here's a stab at it... Decide on how much overlap you need for your spray pattern and calculate your effective spray width. 4" spray with 25% overlap would be 3". Keep your units the same (unit lengths and unit length per unit time). Assumes your
