We have quite a few stencils that either are debonding, have debonded, or we suspect will debond when we can least afford for it to happen. The epoxy is coming loose from the foil, but remains attached to the webbing. All the stencils that are comi

Hi davef, thank you for sharing this. Yes all manufacturers recommend their products, and i dont deny that they are good but for a small shop like i have i think the prices are a bit high. What i think would be a good technique, is heating the area t

We agree with "guest" above. This a "chip bonder" type material used to improve the reliability of array type devices. "A relative comparison of the N50 values is given below: No underfill = 1.0X (baseline) Corner bond = 1.3X Non reworkable underfi

If you do not have a lot of TH joints there are some advantages. No boards "submarined" in solder pot on wave. You can solder the bottome side SMT parts rather than epoxy them when the parts are put down. This should reduce SMT defects and missing pa

Most of the design considerations will be for the wave soldering of the SMT parts. Have you considered selective soldering pallets or masking as an alternative? One problem I have seen with the epoxy process is parts that are high off the board and t

We use uV Dymax glue for thermocouple attach sometimes, but don't like the remainder [anal] and loosing attach, sometimes. Roger Saunders, President Saunders Technology, Inc; said: PRO: � These products are easier to use than high temperature solde

No, there's not a really great epoxy product for attaching thermocouples in reflow. Specifically, what's your problem? From Sanders Temprobe verbage ... Adhesives There are two general classes of material commonly used to adhesive bond thermoc

Roger Saunders, President Saunders Technology, Inc wrote a fairly unbiased paper that compared different thermocouple attach methods. You can probably find it on their site. In it, about gluing thermocouples, he says: There are two general classes

I have never tried this and wouldn�t really even want to consider it. Epoxy generally cures at around 160c in a fairly short amount of time, solder paste requires much more time and a peek temperature of about 210c or more in some cases. Curing you

Hi, Instead of using High Temp solder, I would like to use a UV epoxy to atach termocouples to reflow profile boards. Does any one know a good one? Thanks in advance. Alberto
